Start the week with build issues gathered in one draft
A scheduled review can bring lingering build failures back into view without adding another daily interruption.
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
Build issues can fall out of sight when they are spread across projects and days.
- Gather recent build issues into one place.
- Review a summary before sending it.
- Catch unresolved failures during a predictable review.
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 recent Appveyor builds and draft a Gmail summary of failures that still need attention.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and check that the summary reflects the available build history.
Questions about this workflow
Can it tell whether a failure is unresolved?
Only if Appveyor provides enough current status or history to determine that. If not, specify the review window or criteria in your instruction.
Will this send on every scheduled run?
No. This workflow creates a draft for review.
