Environment Details at Your Fingertips During Failures
Deployment failures are high-stress. Get your environment list instantly in Linear instead of searching Appveyor while the outage clock ticks.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Get Environments
Tool to get a list of all deployment environments. use when you need to enumerate available environments before creating deployments.
Why this helps
Deployment emergencies demand fast decisions, but looking up environments in a separate tool delays response and increases incident stress.
- Diagnose issues immediately in Linear
- See all environments without app-switching
- Reduce incident response time by 5+ minutes
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appveyor to Notis if not already done
- 2Tell Notis: 'When someone creates an issue with deployment-failed label, pull all Appveyor environments'
- 3Confirm trigger is 'Issue Created'
- 4Select your ops or #incidents channel for environment list posting
- 5Test by creating a deployment-failed issue and verify environment list appears
Questions about this workflow
What if we have dozens of environments?
Notis lists them all. If overwhelming, ask to show only prod and staging.
Does this prevent wrong-environment deployments?
Not directly, but seeing the full list forces explicit environment naming, catching mistakes early.
Do we need to update this when adding environments?
No. The automation fetches dynamically every time, so new environments appear automatically.
