Preserve a separate copy of CircleCI release reports

Keep an archive copy of the identified release report when a release event reaches Notis.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Copy file

Duplicates an existing file in google drive, identified by its `file id`.

Why this helps

Teams may need a stable reference to release documentation after the working version changes.

  • Preserve a separate report copy
  • Keep an identifiable release snapshot
  • Reduce manual archive steps

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect CircleCI and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or ask Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: copy the Drive release report identified in the webhook and name the copy from the supplied release details.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real release event and a known report file id.

Questions about this workflow

Does the webhook need to identify the source file?

Yes. The copy action requires the Drive file id.

Does this copy the whole release folder?

The listed action copies a file. It does not copy a folder and its contents.
