Grant GitHub variable access for a YouTube demo repository
Turn approved configuration access into a quick, reportable step.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add selected repository to an organization variable
Grants a repository access to an organization-level github actions variable, if that variable's visibility is set to 'selected repositories'.
Why this helps
Demo configuration gets delayed by a small repository-access task during a busy recording week.
- Reduces setup friction
- Leaves a run report for the team
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect YouTube and GitHub to Notis once.
- 2Create a new automation with an incoming webhook trigger.
- 3Describe when an approved demo repository should receive access to the existing organization variable, choose a report channel, then test with one safe repository.
Questions about this workflow

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 YouTube Activity

List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
New Item in YouTube Playlist

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.
New YouTube Channel Subscription
Triggers when a new channel is subscribed.
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.
