Bring the Right Expert Into the Research
A promising product signal can immediately reach the person best placed to assess it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
Why this helps
Founders spot useful research but lose time deciding whom to involve and remembering to send access.
- Shortens the path from insight to expert review
- Reduces manual access requests
- Keeps collaboration attached to the relevant repository
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect RedCircle API and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it by message.
- 3Use this instruction: When a RedCircle item meets the agreed research criteria, add the named specialist as a GitHub collaborator on the relevant repository with the appropriate permission.
- 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger, select a reporting channel, and test with one real qualifying item.
Questions about this workflow
Can access be limited?
Yes. State the repository and permission level in the plain-language instruction.
Will an existing collaborator be duplicated?
GitHub updates the permission when the collaborator already exists.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link RedCircle API to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
RedCircle API triggers
GitHub actions
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Add email for auth user
Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.
Add app access restrictions
Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
Add a repository to an app installation
Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
