Turn Appveyor build failures into Salesforce follow-ups
A failed build can affect a customer commitment. Send the build event to Notis and get a clear follow-up task in Salesforce.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create task
Creates a new task in salesforce to track activities, to-dos, and follow-ups related to contacts, leads, or other records.
Why this helps
Build failures can get buried in CI alerts while customer follow-up waits in another tool.
- Keep release incidents visible alongside customer work.
- Include the build status and supplied Salesforce record reference in the task.
- Reduce manual copying from build alerts into Salesforce.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appveyor and Salesforce once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Notis by naming it and describing the follow-up outcome.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Salesforce task with the failure summary and supplied Salesforce record ID.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real failed-build example to test the task details.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
A request to the Notis webhook starts it. Send the relevant Appveyor build information with that request.
How does Notis know which Salesforce record to relate the task to?
Include the Salesforce record ID in the webhook data or in your instruction. The workflow cannot infer a customer record from a build alone.
