Notis

Track a release build by its version number

Make version-based build checks easier to follow by having Notis retrieve the matching AppVeyor build details on schedule.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Build By Version

Retrieve a project build by its version number.

Why this helps

Release status can be unclear when the version number is recorded in one place and the build details live elsewhere.

  • Retrieve a build using its version identifier.
  • Surface available build details in a predictable report.
  • Reduce repeated manual checks during release tracking.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and AppVeyor once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the AppVeyor build for the version being tracked and summarize the returned details for AnyDB release planning.
  • 4Pick a recurring Notis schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real project version and verify the returned build matches it.

Questions about this workflow

What does the lookup use?

It retrieves a specific project build by version number. The relevant project and version must be clear in the instruction or available context.

Does this monitor every new build automatically?

No. The workflow performs a scheduled lookup for the version being tracked; it is not a build event trigger.
