Keep Jira tickets up to date with Appveyor deployments
Put deployment progress beside the work it relates to, so nobody has to chase a separate status update.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add Comment
Adds a comment using atlassian document format (adf) for rich text to an existing jira issue.
Why this helps
Deployment updates scattered across CI notifications and tickets make it harder to see whether a change is live or still in progress.
- Keep deployment context attached to the relevant Jira work.
- Reduce status-chasing across tools.
- Preserve a readable sequence of updates on the issue.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appveyor and Jira once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add the deployment status and available build details as a comment on the Jira issue identified in each notification.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real deployment notification that identifies its Jira issue.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which Jira issue to comment on?
The webhook request must include an issue key or other identifying context that lets Notis find the related issue.
Can it report both successful and unsuccessful deployments?
Yes, if the webhook sends those status updates and identifies the related Jira issue.
