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 tickets often omit the environment, sending engineers into avoidable follow-up loops.

  • Clarify deployment scope faster
  • Reduce back-and-forth questions
  • Improve engineering escalations

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Appveyor once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve all Appveyor deployment environments and relate likely environments to each new Zendesk ticket, noting missing clues.
  • 4Pick New Zendesk Ticket as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real deployment-related ticket.

Questions about this workflow

Does this start a deployment?

No. It only retrieves the available environment list and reports likely context.

What if the ticket names an environment that is not listed?

Notis flags the mismatch so the team can verify the environment name.
