Delete one Codemagic cache from a Slack approval
Let a clear approval reaction close a targeted cache cleanup task.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Delete Specific Cache
Tool to delete a specific cache from an application. Use when a cached build artifact needs to be removed. The deletion is performed asynchronously and returns immediately with a 202 Accepted status.
Why this helps
Cache cleanup decisions are made in Slack but still require a manual trip to Codemagic.
- Keeps approval with the discussion
- Limits cleanup to one cache
- Reduces manual console work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Codemagic in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for targeted cache deletion approvals.
- 3Tell Notis to delete only the cache identifier named in the reacted message after verifying the application.
- 4Pick Message Reaction Added as the trigger and filter for the chosen approval emoji.
- 5Test with a noncritical cache and confirm the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Can I require a specific emoji?
Yes, the reaction trigger supports optional emoji filtering.
What if the cache identifier is missing?
