Notis

Watch deployments unfold in Slack

Post a message asking for deployment events, and Notis streams real-time updates from Vercel showing build progress, errors, and completion status.

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

Get Deployment Events

Tool to retrieve events related to a specific deployment. use when monitoring or debugging deployment history or streaming real-time events. example: "get events for deployment dpl xxx since 1540095775941."

Why this helps

Waiting for deployments means switching to Vercel repeatedly to check status. For ADHD developers, this constant tab-switching breaks focus and increases anxiety.

  • Monitor deployments without leaving Slack
  • Real-time alerts for build failures
  • Team visibility into deployment progress
  • Reduced deployment anxiety with transparent updates

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Vercel integrations to Notis.
  • 2Create a new automation called 'Get Deployment Events'.
  • 3Set the trigger to 'Channel Message Received'.
  • 4Write the prompt: 'When someone asks for deployment events, fetch and stream real-time events from Vercel to Slack.'
  • 5Choose your notification channel and test by posting 'Show me events for my latest deployment'.
