Email and Slack notifications
How to configure build status updates with links to artifacts in the Flutter workflow editor
Email publishing settings can be found in App settings > Notifications > Email.
Email publishing is the only publishing option that is enabled by default. Codemagic automatically publishes to your signup email or the email specified as the default one in the service you signed up with (GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab).
You can add your team members or people outside of Codemagic as build notification recipients. Note that external recipients need to verify their email address and consent to receiving build notifications.
If the build succeeds, the email includes release notes (if provided) and download links for the build artifacts. By default, the links are valid for 24 hours. To change this, select your personal account or team and go to Settings > Artifact download links.
If the build fails, the email includes a link to the build logs. Check the Publish artifacts even if tests fail option in the workflow editor to publish artifacts even when one or more tests fail. If that option is unchecked, generated artifacts (if there are any) will be attached only to successful builds.
Email recipient verification
External recipients — people who are not members of your Codemagic team — must verify their email address and consent to receiving build notifications from Codemagic. Both happen in a single step.
Codemagic sends unverified recipients an opt-in email in one of two ways:
- In advance: Team admins (or account owners) can go to Settings > External emails and click Add external recipients. The opt-in email is sent immediately.
- On the first build: If the recipient hasn’t been added in advance, they receive the opt-in email the first time a workflow runs with their email address as a recipient. That run doesn’t send them a build notification yet.
Once they click Confirm in the opt-in email, their email address is verified and they’ll receive build notifications from then on.
Codemagic sends the opt-in email only once. If a recipient misses it, please reach out to our support team.
Monitoring email verification status
To see external email addresses and their verification status, select your personal account or team and go to Settings > External emails in the Codemagic UI. All team members can view this list, but only team admins (or account owners) can add recipients.
Additionally, when a workflow runs with an unverified email address as a recipient, team admins (or account owners) are notified by email. This notification is sent only once per unverified email address.
MS Teams
To be able to receive emails from Codemagic to your MS Teams account, please go to your MS Teams account and select Anyone can send emails to this address in Get email address > Advanced settings.
Use only the part in angle brackets from the whole address line (e.g. My awesome company <543l5kj43.some.address@somedomain.teams.ms>).
Slack
To set up publishing to Slack, you first need to connect the Slack workspace. Navigate to Personal Account > Settings > Integrations > Slack to connect Slack for your personal apps or [Your team] > Settings > Team integrations > Slack to connect Slack for team apps.
Once your Slack workspace is connected, you can enable Slack publishing and select a channel for publishing in App settings > Notifications > Slack when using the workflow editor.
To publish to private channels, you need to invite the Codemagic app to them. To invite the Codemagic app to private channels, write @codemagic in the channel. If you are in the Codemagic web app, refresh the page, and the new channel will become available in the dropdown menu.
If the build succeeds, the Slack message includes release notes (if provided) and download links for the build artifacts. By default, the links are valid for 24 hours. To change this, select your personal account or team and go to Settings > Artifact download links.
If the build fails, a link to the build logs is published. Check Publish artifacts even if tests fail to publish artifacts even when one or more tests fail. If the option is unchecked, generated artifacts (if any) will be attached to successful builds only.
To receive a notification when a build starts, check the checkbox Notify when the build starts.
Published artifacts
When you set up email or Slack publishing, Codemagic publishes the following artifacts:
.app,.ipa,.apk,.exe- Flutter web build archive
- Linux application bundle files
- Windows MSIX packages
