Add an excluded file rule from Slack

Flag the packaging issue and let Notis add the agreed exclusion rule.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Create Excluded File

Tool to add a new excluded file to a project. Use when you need to exclude specific files or patterns from deployment to prevent them from being deployed to servers.

Why this helps

Repeated packaging mistakes consume attention because exclusion fixes are often postponed until the next release.

  • Prevent known files from shipping
  • Capture packaging fixes from review
  • Reduce repeated deployment cleanup

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and DeployHQ in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Excluded file rule on reaction.
  • 3Tell Notis to read the reacted message and create the explicitly requested excluded file rule in DeployHQ.
  • 4Pick Message Reaction Added as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one reviewed packaging issue.

Questions about this workflow

What if the file pattern is not stated?

Notis can ask for the missing pattern instead of creating an unclear rule.
