Trigger Netlify builds

If you are using Netlify to run your site build and deployment processes you might want these processes to be triggered when something is published in Uniform.

Before you start

You must have continuous deployment configured in your Netlify site to configure a build hook in Netlify.

  1. In Netlify, open your site.

  2. Navigate to Site settings > Build & deploy > Continuous Deployment > Build hooks.

    netlify-build-hooks-section
  3. Click Add build hook.

    netlify-build-hooks-add
  4. Enter the following values:

  5. Click Outgoing webhook.

  6. Enter the following values:

    FieldDescription
    Build hook nameDescriptive name for the build hook.
    Branch to buildThe build process will be triggered using the selected branch.
  7. Click Save.

  8. The build hook URL is displayed. Copy this value.

    netlify-build-hook-added

Now you can create a webhook in Uniform that uses this URL. The result will be that whenever anything in your project is published, the build and deploy processes in Netlify will be triggered using the build hook you created in Netlify.
