Apply branch access decisions from the task that approved them
Name the organization repository, protected branch, and complete team list in Todoist. Notis updates GitHub and reports completion.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Add team access restrictions
Overwrites the list of teams (and their child teams) granted push access to a protected branch; the list of team slugs must be provided in the http post request body.
Why this helps
Branch access decisions drift from reality when the implementation requires revisiting a dense settings page later.
- Keep sensitive branches aligned with policy
- Make the intended team list explicit
- Reduce GitHub administration overhead
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and GitHub to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis to replace the protected branch's team push-access list only when a new Todoist governance task supplies the complete approved team list.
- 3Choose New Task Created and a reporting channel.
- 4Test on a non-critical protected branch with known team slugs.
Questions about this workflow
Does this append teams to the current list?
No. This GitHub action overwrites the team restriction list, so the Todoist request should contain the complete approved list.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Todoist to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Todoist 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.
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
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.
