Keep Appveyor investigation findings with the Asana task
Turn a useful log investigation into notes the next person can pick up.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create task comment
Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.
Why this helps
People repeat log investigations when findings stay in a transient chat thread or an unlinked build log.
- Preserve findings in the task activity feed.
- Make investigation handoffs clearer.
- Spend less time repeating completed debugging.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appveyor and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a named automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to summarize supplied Appveyor logs and comment on the identified Asana task with findings and unresolved questions.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real investigation request and review the task comment.
Questions about this workflow
Does the webhook automatically retrieve logs?
The webhook starts the automation. The request or connected Appveyor access must make the relevant build identifiable and the logs available for review.
Can it distinguish confirmed findings from guesses?
Ask Notis to label observed log evidence separately from hypotheses and unresolved questions in the comment.
