Optionally disable deployment_status webhook events for GitHub Actions

1 min read

You can now disable the deployment_status webhook event that Vercel sends to GitHub when Vercel is connected to your GitHub repository.

When deployment_status events are enabled, GitHub's pull request activity will create a log with a status event for every deployment. While this can keep your team better informed, it can also create noisy event logs for repositories with many deployment events, especially in monorepos with many projects.

Disabling these events prevents repeated messages from cluttering your GitHub PR's event history, giving you a cleaner, more focused view of your pull request activity. The Vercel Github comment containing links to your preview deployments will continue to be posted as before.

The deployment_status event is most often used as a trigger for GitHub Actions. We recommend migrating to repository_dispatch events to simply workflows with richer Vercel deployment information.
