CI Artifact Completeness Gate (GitHub Push → Sentry Release Files → Artifact Validation → GitHub Commit Status Update)
CI Artifact Completeness Gate (GitHub Push → Sentry Release Files → Artifact Validation → GitHub Commit Status Update) This workflow acts as a CI/CD quality gate for mobile app crash-symbolication artifacts. Whenever a new commit is pushed to GitHub, the workflow automatically checks the corresponding Sentry release and confirms whether required build artifacts (dSYM or ProGuard + mapping.txt) exist. If artifacts are complete, it updates the GitHub commit status to success, allowing the PR to be merged. If incomplete, the workflow fails silently (no commit status update), effectively blocking merges. ⚡ Quick Implementation Steps Configure GitHub Trigger for your repo. Add Sentry API credentials. Add GitHub API credentials. Update Sentry project URLs with your org_slug and proj_slug. Ensure your build pipeline uploads artifacts to Sentry before the workflow runs. Activate workflow. What It Does This workflow ensures your mobile crash-symbolication artifacts are fully present in Sentry for every release. When a new GitHub push occurs, the workflow: Reads the commit SHA and repo info from the GitHub Push event. Fetches the list of all releases from Sentry. Locates the correct release and fetches its uploaded artifact files. Runs custom validation logic: Success if: a .dSYM file exists *OR**\ both proguard.txt AND mapping.txt are present\ Failure if: neither dSYM nor both mapping artifacts exist. If validated successfully, the commit receives a success status on GitHub → PR can be merged. This provides a strong CI gate ensuring symbolication completeness and preventing un-debuggable releases. Who's It For Mobile development teams using Sentry for crash reporting. Engineering teams enforcing strict release-quality gates. DevOps teams wanting automated artifact validation. CI/CD pipeline engineers integrating Sentry symbolication checks. Teams who frequently upload dSYM or ProGuard mapping files. Requirements to Use This Workflow n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted) GitHub repository access (API credentials) Sentry project with: org_slug project_slug Auth Token with release access Build process that uploads artifacts to Sentry releases The release version must match the format expected by the workflow How It Works & How To Set Up Step 1: GitHub Push Trigger The GithubPushTrigger node listens for push events and extracts: Commit SHA Repository full name Branch Metadata No configuration required except selecting your GitHub credentials. Step 2: Configure Sentry Release Fetching Open Check Sentry Artifacts Releases and update: https://sentry.io/api/0/projects/<org_slug>/<proj_slug>/releases/ Make sure the Sentry credential is correctly selected. Step 3: Fetch Files for the Specific Release The next HTTP Request (Check Sentry Artifacts Files) uses a dynamic URL: https://sentry.io/api/0/projects/<org_slug>/<proj_slug>/releases/{{ $json.version }}/files/ Ensure your build pipeline sets version consistently with what Sentry receives. Step 4: Artifact Validation Logic The Verify Artifacts node runs JS logic to check: ✔ Condition 1 --- Valid dSYM Any file ending with .dSYM ✔ Condition 2 --- Valid Android Mapping proguard.txt\ mapping.txt ✖ Failure --- If neither set exists The Code node returns: { "status": "failure", "description": "Missing artifacts..." } This stops the workflow and prevents GitHub commit-status update. Step 5: Extract Commit Info & Prepare Update The Artifacts Validation and Get Repository Data node compiles: repo full name commit SHA validation status If validation failed → workflow ends here. Step 6: Update GitHub Commit Status The Update Status node hits: POST https://api.github.com/repos/<repoFullName>/statuses/<commitSHA> And sends: { "state": "success", "description": "Artifacts successfully verified." } This appears as a green check on your commit/PR. Step 7: Activate the Workflow Turn on the workflow to start enforcing symbolication completeness for all releases. How To Customize Nodes Change Sentry Project Edit URLs in both Sentry HTTP Request nodes: org_slug proj_slug Add Additional Artifact Rules Modify JS inside Verify Artifacts, e.g., require: native symbols extra asset files other platform artifacts Customize Commit Status Message Edit the request body in Update Status. Support Multiple Platforms / Multiple Releases Branch logic in: Code nodes Conditional checks Add-Ons (Optional Enhancements) Add Slack/Teams notifications when artifacts are missing. Auto-retry release checks after build completes. Merge-blocking PR checks for GitHub. Multi-platform artifact validation (iOS + Android + Unity). Upload artifacts directly from n8n. Store validation logs in Airtable or Google Sheets. Add GitHub Checks API rich reporting. Use Case Examples Block merges until symbolication artifacts are uploaded. Enforce strict Sentry release completeness for every build. Ensure Android mapping files always match the correct release version. Automatically verify multiple release types (debug, staging, production). Improve crash debugging by preventing un-symbolicated builds from shipping. Troubleshooting Guide | Issue | Possible Cause | Solution | |----------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Commit status never updates| Validation failed silently | Check logs from Verify Artifacts | | "version undefined" in URL | Sentry release list not matched | Ensure your build uploads a valid version | | 401 from Sentry API | Invalid/broken Sentry token | Regenerate token and update credentials | | Always failing validation | Artifact names differ (e.g., .dsym.zip) | Update RegEx patterns in Code node | | GitHub status API returns 404 | Missing repo permissions | Update GitHub credentials (repo status scope) | | Files array empty | Build system not uploading artifacts | Verify build → Sentry upload step | Need Help?
