Notice access drift before it becomes a problem
People and responsibilities change faster than permission lists. A recurring review can surface only the access that no longer makes sense.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Check if a user is a repository collaborator
Checks if a user is a collaborator on a specified github repository, returning a 204 status if they are, or a 404 status if they are not or if the repository/user does not exist.
Why this helps
Former contractors or changed roles can leave behind unclear repository access.
- Makes access drift visible
- Reduces manual permission archaeology
- Supports cleaner offboarding and role changes
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Rosette text analytics and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a scheduled automation in the portal or ask Notis to review collaborator access.
- 3Use this instruction: Analyze the current role notes, check whether each named user is a GitHub collaborator on the specified repository, and report mismatches for review.
- 4Choose a monthly schedule, select the run-report channel, and test with one repository and one role change.
Questions about this workflow
Does it remove collaborators?
No. This workflow checks access and reports mismatches so removal decisions remain explicit.
Can it review contractors?
Yes, if their names and repository context are included in the text.

Rosette text analytics triggers
GitHub actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Rosette text analytics and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
