Check GitHub collaborator access from Trello activity
Make access readiness part of the handoff, not a surprise after it.
Trigger
New Activity Trigger
Triggered when there is activity in Trello.
Action
Check if a user is a repository collaborator
Checks if a user is a collaborator on a specified github repository, returning a 204 status if they are, or a 404 status if they are not or if the repository/user does not exist.
Why this helps
A teammate is pulled into a Trello task but only discovers missing repository access when they try to start.
- Prevents blocked starts
- Cuts access pings
- Makes collaboration dependable
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Trello and GitHub to Notis.
- 2Create an automation that watches your handoff activity.
- 3Use a plain-language prompt to check collaborator access to the related repository when that Trello activity occurs, select New Activity, choose a channel, and test a handoff.

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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
