Review file exclusions after a release view is removed
A retired view can signal that a release process has changed. Use a clear convention to update the corresponding DeployHQ exclusion rule.
Trigger
View Deleted
Triggers when a previously known Airtable view is deleted.
Action
Update Excluded File
Tool to update an existing excluded file rule in a project. Use when you need to modify the file path pattern or server associations for an excluded file in the deployment configuration.
Why this helps
Old deployment exclusions can linger after a team retires the process or release view they were meant to support.
- Prompt a timely review of a related exclusion rule.
- Keep file deployment behavior aligned with a documented process.
- Make the update traceable in a Notis run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and DeployHQ once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, define how the deleted view identifies the project and existing exclusion rule, plus the desired replacement path or server association.
- 4Pick the Airtable View Deleted trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real deleted view and check that the correct rule is updated.
Questions about this workflow
Does deleting a view provide the replacement exclusion rule?
No. Specify the desired rule or convention in your prompt. If the deletion event does not identify a unique project and rule, the automation may not have enough information to update safely.
Can this remove an exclusion rule?
This workflow uses Update Excluded File. Deleting a rule would require a different action and a clear instruction to do so.
