Notis

Understand document pipeline failures faster

After a completed run, Notis can retrieve CircleCI test metadata and highlight failure messages and runtimes that need attention.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Test Metadata

Retrieves test results, run times, and failure details for a job.

Why this helps

A failed document-processing run can leave teams searching through test output to understand what broke and what to do next.

  • Bring test failure details into the run report.
  • Reduce time spent scanning raw test output.
  • Make repeated failure patterns easier to notice.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and CircleCI once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation describing how to summarize test results for completed document runs.
  • 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger that signals a completed run.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real completed job that has test metadata.

Questions about this workflow
