Get a weekly view of CircleCI build activity

Keep a lightweight record of what shipped and how the builds went.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create email draft

Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.

Why this helps

Useful build history gets scattered across projects, making it hard to recap progress at the end of the week.

  • Collect recent build outcomes into one recap.
  • Make progress easier to share in a weekly update.
  • Keep the report editable before sending.

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 Weekly Green Build Report.
  • 3Tell Notis to summarize the week's CircleCI build activity, call out notable completed builds and failures, and create a Gmail draft.
  • 4Choose a weekly schedule, select where run reports should go, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Can the report cover multiple CircleCI projects?

Yes, if your CircleCI access and instruction identify the projects to review.

Does it infer what was released to customers?

Only if CircleCI data or your instruction supplies that information. Otherwise it can report build outcomes and mark release context as unavailable.
