Netlify

Manage Netlify sites, deploys, environment variables, forms, and DNS from your flows over the Netlify API. Trigger builds, roll back to a known-good deploy, and sync configuration.

25 actions available

A release flow signals a new build is ready

Agent resolves the site to deploy

Agent calls Trigger Build to deploy from the connected repository

Agent polls Get Deploy until the deploy reaches the ready state

Agent posts the deploy state and URL to the team channel

An engineer confirms before the agent restores a previous deploy during a rollback

What This Integration Enables

FlowRunner agents use Netlify to run deploys and site operations from inside a larger flow. An agent can trigger a build from a connected Git repository and monitor its state, roll back to a known-good deploy when a bad release is detected, and sync environment variables across sites and deploy contexts. It can collect and process Netlify Forms submissions, then archive or clean them up, and manage DNS zones and records programmatically. Netlify deploys are digest-based, so the agent deploys from the repository or restores a previous deploy rather than uploading files. What it does not do on its own is restore a previous deploy, because a rollback changes the live site. That confirmation stays with a person.

Without FlowRunner

Manual deploys An engineer opens Netlify and triggers each deploy by hand

Guesswork rollbacks Finding the last good deploy means scrolling the deploy list under pressure

Submissions piling up Form submissions sit unprocessed until someone checks the dashboard

With FlowRunner

Triggered deploys The agent deploys from the repository and confirms it reaches ready

Confirmed rollbacks The agent surfaces the last good deploy and restores it on approval

Submissions routed The agent pulls new form submissions and hands them to the next step

Use Case Scenarios

Deploy on release

A release flow signals a new build. The agent calls Trigger Build to deploy the site from the connected repository, then polls Get Deploy until it reaches the ready state, and posts the deploy URL to the team channel. The site ships as part of the flow, and the team sees the confirmed deploy instead of watching the dashboard.

Form submissions into the operation

The agent calls List Form Submissions and finds new entries. It notifies the team of each one and hands the payload to the next step, then calls Delete Form Submission to clear the entries it has processed. Submissions move into the operation instead of collecting in the Netlify UI.

Rollback with a confirmation gate

A monitoring flow detects a bad release. The agent calls List Deploys to find the last deploy that reached ready cleanly, and posts it to the incident channel with the current broken deploy for comparison. It does not roll back on its own. Only after an engineer confirms does the agent call Restore Deploy to republish the good build.

Human-in-Loop Highlight

The human-in-loop moment in Netlify is the rollback gate. Triggering a build, watching a deploy reach ready, and clearing processed form submissions are all safe to automate, so the agent runs them by rule. Restoring a previous deploy is different, because it changes what every visitor sees right now. When a monitoring flow detects a bad release, the agent finds the last good deploy with List Deploys and posts it to the incident channel: "Current deploy is erroring. The last deploy that reached ready cleanly is #341 from 40 minutes ago. Restore it?" An engineer confirms. Only then does the agent call Restore Deploy. The agent ships deploys and gathers evidence on its own. A person owns the rollback that changes the live site.
