Keep deployment exclusions current from Sheets requests

Record an exclusion change in a watched range and have Notis update the existing rule in DeployHQ.

Trigger

Cell Range Values Changed

Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.

Action

Update Excluded File

Tool to update an existing excluded file rule in a project. Use when you need to modify the file path pattern or server associations for an excluded file in the deployment configuration.

Why this helps

File exclusion changes can be recorded during review and then missed in the deployment configuration.

  • Make exclusion requests actionable
  • Reduce manual follow-up on deployment configuration
  • Keep change requests visible in Sheets

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and DeployHQ once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to update the existing DeployHQ excluded file rule based on the change in the range.
  • 4Pick the Google Sheets Cell Range Values Changed trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real exclusion change and review the updated rule.
