Notis

See the week's build health in one review

Use a recurring review to notice recurring build trouble and decide what deserves attention next.

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

Without a regular checkpoint, repeated build issues can feel like separate interruptions instead of a pattern.

  • Bring the week's build outcomes together.
  • Spot recurring failures when the history supports it.
  • Keep decisions and follow-up in a draft you can edit.

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 summarize the week's available build outcomes and draft a review email with notable failures and possible follow-up.
  • 4Pick a weekly schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the selected review window.

Questions about this workflow

Can it report a failure rate?

Only if the available data includes enough build results to calculate one. If the information is missing, ask for a qualitative summary instead.

Can I use the draft as a decision record?

Yes. Add the decisions or questions you want included to your instruction, then edit the draft as needed.
