Notis

Finish repository access while the onboarding task is fresh

Create the onboarding task once. Notis reads the requested GitHub user, repository, and permission and handles the collaborator step.

Trigger

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

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.

Why this helps

Small access steps get deferred during onboarding, leaving a new contributor blocked and prompting extra follow-up.

  • Unblock contributors sooner
  • Keep onboarding requests in one queue
  • Update existing collaborator permissions with the same flow

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Todoist and GitHub in Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis in plain language to add or update a repository collaborator when a new Todoist onboarding task requests it.
  • 3Choose Todoist New Task Created and a channel for success or error reports.
  • 4Create a real test request using a repository where you can manage access.

Questions about this workflow

Does this always create an invitation?

GitHub may create an invitation for a new collaborator or update permissions directly for someone who already has access.
