Notify your team when a CircleCI deployment succeeds
Share the deployment outcome without writing the update by hand.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send Email
Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.
Why this helps
A successful deployment can go unannounced when the person watching the pipeline is busy moving to the next task.
- Share a deployment result promptly.
- Include the relevant pipeline context in the message.
- Avoid composing routine status updates manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CircleCI and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it Successful Deploy Notification.
- 3Tell Notis to check the CircleCI deployment identified by the request and send a Gmail update only if it succeeded, including the available project and build details.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger, select where run reports should go, and test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
Does every webhook send an email?
The instruction can require Notis to verify the CircleCI result and send only when it indicates success.
What happens if the build result is unclear?
Instruct Notis to report the uncertainty in the run report and not send a success notification.
