Why this helps
Long build logs are difficult to inspect while also managing active deals and follow-up.
- Retrieve the log for a specific build.
- Summarize useful details without scanning the full log manually.
- Keep troubleshooting attached to the research task that surfaced the issue.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and Apify once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, provide the build ID and ask Notis to summarize relevant log details for the reported research issue.
- 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a known build log and check that the summary distinguishes evidence from interpretation.
