Ship edge functions from Slack
Mention edge function deployment in a Slack channel, and Notis deploys it to Vercel's global edge network instantly.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Deploy Edge Function
Deploy edge functions to vercel. use when you need to deploy serverless functions that run on the edge runtime with fast cold starts and global distribution.
Why this helps
Deploying edge functions requires understanding Vercel's edge runtime, navigating function files, and triggering builds. This technical overhead is especially frustrating for quick deploys.
- Deploy edge functions without Vercel dashboard
- Faster edge function updates
- Global distribution with low latency
- Reduce deployment complexity with plain-language requests
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Vercel to Notis.
- 2Create an automation called 'Deploy Edge Functions'.
- 3Set the trigger to 'Channel Message Received'.
- 4Write the prompt: 'When someone asks to deploy an edge function, deploy it to Vercel edge runtime.'
- 5Choose your notification channel and test by posting 'Deploy my edge function'.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which function to deploy?
Specify the function name in your message (e.g., 'Deploy my auth edge function'). Notis identifies it from your project.
Can I deploy multiple edge functions at once?
Yes, list the function names and Notis deploys them sequentially.
What's the difference between edge functions and regular deployments?
Edge functions run at Vercel's edge nodes worldwide for ultra-fast response times. Regular deployments run on your serverless functions.
