Share Deployment Status Alongside a Location

Keep deployment coordination and a supplied map point together in the Telegram conversation.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Send Location

Send point on the map location to a telegram chat using the bot api.

Why this helps

Teams coordinating a location-based rollout can have status and site context in separate threads.

  • Share a supplied location with a deployment status update.
  • Keep rollout context in one chat.
  • Avoid manually posting the map point separately.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Appveyor and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe the result to Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to check the relevant Appveyor deployment and send a location supplied in the request to Telegram with the returned status.
  • 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and have the calling system provide the needed location and invoke the endpoint.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one real deployment and supplied point.

Questions about this workflow

Does Appveyor provide geographic coordinates?

This workflow requires the location to be supplied by the calling system or user. Appveyor status alone does not imply a location.

Is this useful for every software deployment?

It is most useful when rollout coordination genuinely depends on a physical site or supplied map point.
