Make low-stock engineering work impossible to overlook
A small inventory signal should not become a late-night scramble.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add labels to an issue
Adds labels (provided in the request body) to a repository issue; labels that do not already exist are created.
Why this helps
Low-stock product and storefront tasks disappear into a general backlog until the inventory problem becomes urgent.
- Highlights inventory-sensitive work
- Creates a repeatable review rhythm
- Helps prevent avoidable stock-related surprises
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Shopify and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to build it in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: Each morning, check Shopify for products below the agreed stock threshold and add an inventory-risk label to their related GitHub issues.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule, select a channel for run reports, and test with one known low-stock product.
Questions about this workflow

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.
