Abort deployments when Confluence records a release hold

Keep a documented release hold from becoming a live incident.

Trigger

New Page Created

Triggers when a new page is created in Confluence. Optionally filters by space or status.

Action

Abort Deployment

Tool to abort a currently running deployment. Use when you need to terminate a deployment that is in progress.

Why this helps

A release decision can land in Confluence while a deployment is already running, leaving someone to switch tools and stop it manually.

  • Stops risky releases quickly
  • Keeps the decision in the team knowledge base
  • Reduces tool switching during incidents

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Confluence and DeployHQ in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation and describe that an explicit release hold on a new page should abort the matching running deployment.
  • 3Pick the New Page Created trigger for Confluence.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real release hold page.

Questions about this workflow

Can this abort every deployment?

Tell Notis how to identify the matching running deployment in your instruction; otherwise the required project or deployment reference is missing.

Where do reports appear?

They go to the report channel you select when creating the automation.
