Review deployment activity in one daily digest

Replace scattered status checks with one short draft that collects the deployment activity you choose to review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create email draft

Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.

Why this helps

Repeatedly checking deployment status interrupts focused work and makes it harder to see the day's pattern.

  • Review recent deployment activity in one place.
  • Choose a predictable time for status review.
  • Keep the digest editable before it reaches anyone.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Appveyor and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review deployments from the chosen time window and draft a concise Gmail digest.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and adjust the time window or detail level in your instruction.

Questions about this workflow

Can this report include trends?

Notis can summarize trends only when the available deployment history contains enough comparable data. State the time window you want reviewed.

Does the digest go out automatically?

No. The workflow creates a Gmail draft for you to review and send.
