Add Repository Collaborators from Telegram Channel Posts
You announce a new contributor in your Telegram channel. Notis reads that announcement and instantly adds them as a collaborator to your GitHub repo. They can start contributing immediately.
Trigger
New Channel Post
Action
Add a repository collaborator
Add a user as a repository collaborator or update their access.
Why this helps
Adding collaborators manually to multiple repositories is error-prone and easily forgotten. Asynchronous teams need automated provisioning to avoid access bottlenecks.
- Collaborators gain instant repository access when announced
- No more forgotten or duplicated access requests
- Works at scale with multiple repositories and team members
- Reduces manual admin tasks that drain focus from actual work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and GitHub to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When I post an announcement in the Telegram channel mentioning a GitHub username and repository, add that user as a collaborator with push access.'
- 3Select Telegram (New Channel Post) and choose where to receive run notifications.
- 4Test by posting an announcement like 'Adding @alice to the docs repo' and verify she appears in the collaborators list.
Questions about this workflow
Can I specify permission levels?
Yes—mention 'read', 'write', or 'maintain' in your post and Notis applies that permission level. Default is 'write'.
What if I want to add someone to multiple repos at once?
List the repos in your channel post: 'Adding @alice to docs, api, and frontend' and Notis adds them to all three.
Can this work for organization-owned repos?
Yes—this works perfectly for org repos and is especially useful when scaling team access.
