Catch assignment problems before they become handoffs
Not every name in a message is a valid GitHub assignee. Let Notis check first and report only what needs your attention.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Check if a user can be assigned to an issue
Checks if a specified github user can be assigned to a given issue within a repository.
Why this helps
Failed or invalid assignments create another round of manual coordination.
- Prevents avoidable assignment failures
- Separates clear ownership from exceptions
- Reduces back-and-forth with collaborators
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Rosette text analytics and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis for an assignee validation workflow.
- 3Tell Notis: Extract the likely owner from each incoming text, check whether that person can be assigned to the referenced GitHub issue, and report the result.
- 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger, select a run-report channel, and test with one real issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does this assign the issue automatically?
This version verifies assignability and reports the result, which is useful when you want a human confirmation before changing ownership.
What happens when the name is ambiguous?
Notis can report the ambiguity so you resolve only that case.

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.
