Bring Airtable comment history into CircleCI build triage

See what has already been discussed before you decide how to handle a new build issue.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

List Comments

Retrieves all comments for a specific record in an airtable table, requiring existing `baseid`, `tableidorname`, and `recordid`.

Why this helps

Build triage can repeat old investigations when prior context is buried in record comments.

  • Bring existing discussion into the current review.
  • Reduce duplicate investigation and repeated questions.
  • Summarize prior follow-up from the identified record.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect CircleCI and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, or use Automations, New Automation in the portal.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list comments on the specified Airtable record and summarize relevant prior follow-up alongside the incoming build details.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real build detail linked to a record that has comments.

Questions about this workflow

Can it find the record by searching all comments?

No. The comments action requires an existing base, table, and record identifier. The webhook details need to identify the target record.

Will it add a new comment?

No. This workflow reads comments only. Use Create Comment if you want to attach a new build update.
