Can you make netlify wait for github CI to finish before starting its build?

Hello world,

I have a blog (https://blog-ari-web.netlify.app) with a custom domain (https://blog.ari-web.xyz) and it’s generated by my custom python script and I also have some CI stuff set up and if it fails it’s basically useless build minutes used, so can I make netlify wait until this CI passes and then build the site using this command?

I have tried looking up and found nothing about it besides some errors on push or something

Maybe it’s not even a thing? Not sure, but still, how can I do it as the CI doesn’t pass 100% of the time and I just waste minutes of my netlify build time which builds up when trying to fix my issue that is making CI fail

• Netlify command used for building: blog.ari-web.xyz/netlify.toml at main · TruncatedDinosour/blog.ari-web.xyz · GitHub
• Netlify site: https://blog-ari-web.netlify.app
• Custom domain: https://blog.ari-web.xyz
• Build script: https://github.com/TruncatedDinosour/blog.ari-web.xyz/blob/main/scripts/blog

thanks in advance <3

Hey @B00bleaTea

Have you seen this thread [Support Guide] How can I disable automatic git deploys? and in particular this answer

[Support Guide] How can I disable automatic git deploys?

Hi, @brianjychan, if you are doing a build in some CI system you can skip building at Netlify and directly deploy the locally built site to Netlify from the CI system itself. This is done using manual deploys and the Netlify CLI tool: To summarize, you can install Netlify CLI as a build dependency in the CI system and when the checks pass you can the CI script/system then executes netlify deploy --prod for the the “publish directory” (as we call it at Netlify). If this is done you will know …
