Keep deployment approval context with the build
Bring the decision context and its associated build status together in Airtable for a cleaner release review.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a record
Creates a new record in a specified airtable table; field values must conform to the table's column types.
Why this helps
Approval context and build status can live in separate places, making it harder to understand a release decision later.
- Keep supplied approval context next to build status.
- Make release decisions easier to revisit.
- Reduce manual copying between approval messages and the tracker.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Buildkite and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create an Airtable record summarizing the supplied approval context and associated Buildkite status.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real request containing the approval details and build reference.
Questions about this workflow
Does Buildkite provide approval details automatically?
The workflow only uses approval details included in the webhook or otherwise available to Notis. Supply decision context with the request when needed.
Can it make the approval decision?
This workflow records supplied context and status. It does not replace your team's approval process.
