How do I get notified when my deploy finishes?
Add one curl POST to your Lert link as the last step of your pipeline. When the deploy lands, your iPhone buzzes in about a second. No account, no API keys, no SDK. Setup takes under 30 seconds.
Deploys take a few minutes, and staring at CI logs the whole time is a waste of your attention. The fix is to have the pipeline ping your phone the moment it's done. With Lert that's a single curl line in your workflow — your unique link is the credential, so there's no token to store in secrets and nothing to install on the runner.
Set it up in under 30 seconds
- Download the app. Open it once — there's no account to create.
- Copy your link. A private link like
https://lert.dev/p/your-idis on screen; one tap copies it. - Add a curl step at the end of your deploy job. Run it after the deploy succeeds.
Merge it, push, and the next deploy tells your phone the second it finishes.
The code
# ... your build & deploy steps above ... - name: Notify my phone run: | curl -X POST "https://lert.dev/p/your-id" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"title":"Deploy finished","body":"'"$GITHUB_REPOSITORY"' is live"}'
No headers beyond content type, no auth token, no SDK. Works the same in GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins, or any runner that can run curl. Prefer a green/red result? Use if: success() and a second step with if: failure().
Tip: put the deploy target and commit in the body — "prod · a1b2c3d is live" — so the buzz in your pocket tells you exactly what shipped without opening anything.
