Keep a history of technical debt observations
Record the debt indicators Codacy returns so you can revisit how your repository changes over time.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Append Values to Spreadsheet
Adds values to the end of a spreadsheet table.
Why this helps
Without a regular history, technical debt discussions rely on memory instead of comparable observations.
- Build a dated history for future comparisons.
- Keep recurring debt reviews in one place.
- Make changes easier to discuss with concrete observations.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Codacy and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, specify the Codacy technical debt data to retrieve and ask Notis to append a dated observation.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one repository and confirm the appended record includes the date and requested data.
Questions about this workflow
Will this calculate a trend on its own?
It appends observations. Trend calculations depend on the data available and can be performed separately in the spreadsheet.
What if Codacy does not return a requested metric?
Ask Notis to record only returned data and note unavailable values clearly rather than infer them.
