Inspect the Appveyor job log behind a document workflow change

When an Affinda parsing or invoice workflow update needs investigation, send Notis the Appveyor job details and retrieve its log without hunting through separate tabs.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Download Build Log

Download the log for a specific build job, whether running or complete.

Why this helps

Finding the relevant job output during a document workflow investigation takes focus away from understanding the change itself.

  • Retrieve the log for a specific Appveyor job on demand.
  • Keep investigation requests tied to document workflow context.
  • Cut down on manual navigation during debugging.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Appveyor once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction and include the Appveyor job identifier.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real job whose log you are allowed to retrieve.
