  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe that Notis should use the build job reference in the new row to retrieve that job's artifacts and report them.
  • 4Choose New Rows in Google Sheet as the trigger, then select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real row containing a valid Appveyor build job reference.
