In order to pull and display release information on the Events page, you must configure a post-release hook in your deployment pipeline to notify Noibu when you are shipping code. Presently, Noibu only has an integration with GitLab, but you can create a generic webhook for any tool, provided it can send an HTTP request and retrieve release data. This article contains the basic requirements to establish a generic webhook. For tool specific guides, see our resources on creating webhooks with GitLab and Jenkins.
Prerequisites
Before beginning this process, retrieve your Domain's Unique ID String.
Process
To create a webhook, add a post-deploy step in your script to notify Noibu via the following HTTP request:
HTTP `POST` To https://webhook.noibu.com/release_webhook/<domain-id>
Replace the <domain-id> placeholder with your domain’s unique identifier. For help pulling your domain-id, contact our Solutions Engineering team.
The request body must include the following fields:
| Field | Format | Description |
|---|---|---|
| component | String | What piece of your site did you release? (open field: "frontend", "backend", "checkout", "marketing", etc...) |
| title | String | Summary of the release. This will likely be configured as a variable. |
| description | String | Details about the release. Value can be “null”. This will likely be configured as a variable. |
| status | String | Did the release successfully deploy or was there an error? ("success" or "failed") This will likely be configured as a variable. |
| version | String | What version number/hash ID of the software was released? (open field: "1.0.0", commit hash, or ticket ID) This will likely be configured as a variable. |
| release_time | String | The time the release went live. Use the RFC3339 timestamp. This will likely be configured as a variable. |
The request body should look something like this:
{
"component":"frontend",
"title":"Fake Release #2",
"description":"release description",
"status":"success",
"version":"1.10",
"release_time":"2023-08-14 16:08:44+02:00"
}
