Refresh YouTube walkthroughs after deployments

A successful deploy becomes a cue to keep customer education current.

Trigger

New Deployment Status Created

Triggers when a new deployment status is created for a specific deployment. Fires an event for each newly created deployment status on the monitored deployment. Deployment statuses represent state transitions such as pending, in_progress, success, failure, error, inactive, and queued. The payload includes the status state, creator, environment, description, timestamps, and relevant URLs.

Action

Update video

Updates metadata for a youtube video identified by videoid, which must exist; an empty list for tags removes all existing tags.

Why this helps

Product walkthroughs fall behind because post-deploy communication is easy to defer.

  • Creates a reliable post-deploy cue
  • Keeps customer guidance current

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and YouTube to Notis once.
  • 2Create a new automation.
  • 3Describe how Notis should update the walkthrough video after a successful deployment status.
  • 4Choose New Deployment Status Created and a channel for reports.
  • 5Test it with a completed deployment.
