Automatic Build Archival on Issue Completion

Completed issues need their builds archived. Do it automatically instead of remembering to grab artifacts later.

Trigger

Issue Updated Trigger

Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.

Action

Get Build Artifacts

Tool to get the list of artifacts for a specific build job. use when you need to retrieve artifacts after a job completes.

Why this helps

Closing issues means remembering to save their build artifacts. It's easy to forget, then later you can't find the exact build that fixed something.

  • Never lose build history for completed work
  • Reduce manual archival steps
  • Keep complete deployment traceability

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Appveyor to Notis
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When an issue is marked completed, fetch its build artifacts and add them to a record for this issue'
  • 3Select 'Issue Updated' as your trigger - fires when status changes
  • 4Pick your docs or archive channel
  • 5Test by marking an issue complete and verifying artifacts are captured

Questions about this workflow

What if an issue doesn't have a build?

Notis will fetch the list but it might be empty. That's fine - better than forgetting to check.

Can this archive other information too?

Yes. Extend it to capture description, assignee, and timestamps for a complete archive record.

How long should we keep archives?

That's your call. Use a cron automation to clean up old archives monthly, or keep forever for compliance.
