Travis CI

Get, list, cancel, restart, and trigger Travis CI builds.

Overview

Travis CI is a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform. This tool allows you to get build details, list builds, cancel running builds, restart completed builds, and trigger new builds on repository branches via the Travis CI API v3.

Parameters

Build: Cancel

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
Build ID	string	Yes	—	Value uniquely identifying the build. Supports expressions like {{ $json.buildId }}.

Build: Get

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
Build ID	string	Yes	—	Value uniquely identifying the build. Supports expressions like {{ $json.buildId }}.
Additional Fields	collection	No	{}	Additional options for the get operation.
— Include	string	No	—	List of attributes to eager load.

Build: Get Many

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
Return All	boolean	No	false	Whether to return all results or only up to a given limit.
Limit	number	No	100	Max number of results to return. (shown when Return All is false)
Additional Fields	collection	No	{}	Additional options for the getAll operation.
— Include	string	No	—	List of attributes to eager load.

Build: Restart

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
Build ID	string	Yes	—	Value uniquely identifying the build. Supports expressions like {{ $json.buildId }}.

Build: Trigger

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
Slug	string	Yes	—	Repository slug in {owner}/{repo} format (e.g., n8n-io/n8n). Supports expressions like {{ $json.repo }}.
Branch	string	Yes	—	Branch requested to be built. Supports expressions like {{ $json.branch }}.
Additional Fields	collection	No	{}	Additional options for the trigger operation.
— Message	string	No	—	Travis CI status message attached to the request.
— Merge Mode	options	No	—	How to merge the build request configuration.

All Operations

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
Max Concurrency	number	No	10	Maximum number of items to process concurrently.

Output Data

How the result reaches the output item depends on the operation, and the two behaviors differ:

Operation	Output items per input item
get, cancel, restart, trigger	One item. The API response is merged onto the input item JSON, so fields already on the item pass through.
getAll	Fans out — one item per build. Each item’s JSON is the Travis build object and replaces the input item JSON entirely; upstream fields do not pass through.

Binary data is forwarded unchanged in every case. Because getAll replaces the item JSON, capture anything you need from upstream before this node, or read it back from the build object itself.

With Return All on, getAll pages through the whole build list; with it off, it requests a single page and trims it to Limit. Sort By and Order are combined into one sort instruction, so setting Order without Sort By has no effect.

Reference the result downstream by expression, e.g. {{ $json.id }} or {{ $json.state }}.

Usage Examples

• Get a specific build by ID
• List all builds for the current user
• List builds sorted by creation date
• Cancel a running build
• Restart a completed build
• Trigger a new build on a specific branch
• Trigger a build with a custom message and merge mode

Example Configuration

Get one build, eager-loading its commit:

{
  "type": "travis_ci",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "build",
    "operation": "get",
    "buildId": "{{ $json.buildId }}",
    "additionalFields": {
      "include": "build.commit"
    }
  }
}

List the 25 most recently finished builds:

{
  "type": "travis_ci",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "build",
    "operation": "getAll",
    "returnAll": false,
    "limit": 25,
    "additionalFields": {
      "sortBy": "finished_at",
      "order": "desc"
    }
  }
}

Trigger a build on a branch with a custom message:

{
  "type": "travis_ci",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "build",
    "operation": "trigger",
    "slug": "myorg/myrepo",
    "branch": "{{ $json.branch }}",
    "additionalFields": {
      "message": "Manual build from workflow",
      "mergeMode": "deep_merge"
    }
  }
}

Cancel a running build:

{
  "type": "travis_ci",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "build",
    "operation": "cancel",
    "buildId": "{{ $json.buildId }}"
  }
}

Restart a finished build:

{
  "type": "travis_ci",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "build",
    "operation": "restart",
    "buildId": "123456789"
  }
}

Error Handling

Mode	Behavior
stop	Halts workflow on first error
continue	Skips failed items, passes successful ones through
errorPort	Routes failed items to Error output port

Tips

Use Travis CI to get, list, cancel, restart, or trigger CI/CD builds via the Travis CI API v3.
