Vercel events, straight into Pushover
Every deployment succeeding, failing, or being promoted — posted to Pushover the moment it happens. No Pushover app to install, no monthly automation subscription.
The gap this fills: Vercel doesn't ship an official Pushover app. If you want deployment succeeding, failing, or being promoted to show up in Pushover the moment it happens, the usual options are a paid third-party bot, custom code, or routing everything through a $20–50/month automation platform just to move one webhook from one URL to another. ZestyGlue does exactly that one thing for $9/month.
What it looks like
ZestyGlue
Vercel — Deployment.Succeeded
my-app
my-app-git-main-myteam.vercel.app
A real Vercel event, shown as ZestyGlue formats it for Pushover.
Setup — about two minutes
- Create the connector. In ZestyGlue, start a new Vercel → Pushover connector. You'll get a unique webhook URL right away.
- Point Vercel at it. Go to your team's Settings → Webhooks → Add Webhook, paste in your ZestyGlue webhook URL, and select the deployment events you want.
- Copy the signing secret. Vercel shows a secret when you create the webhook (shown only once) — paste that into ZestyGlue's connector setup so every event can be verified as genuinely from Vercel.
- Point Pushover at ZestyGlue. Create an application at pushover.net → Create an Application for an API token, then copy your User Key from your dashboard — enter both into ZestyGlue.
Under the hood: Vercel's webhook secret is only ever displayed once, at creation — copy it into ZestyGlue immediately, since there's no way to view it again afterward (only rotate to a new one).

Questions
Is my Vercel Webhook Secret safe with ZestyGlue?
It's encrypted at rest with Fernet symmetric encryption before it ever touches disk, it's never logged, and it's never displayed again in the dashboard after you enter it — only a masked placeholder is shown.
Can I scope this to just one project instead of my whole team?
Yes — when creating the webhook, choose specific projects instead of "All Team Projects" to limit which deployments trigger it.
Will this fire for preview deployments too, not just production?
Yes, deployment events fire for preview and production deployments alike unless you scope the webhook or filter by branch on Vercel's side.
Is there a cost for the Pushover app itself?
Pushover charges a small one-time fee per platform for the app itself, separate from ZestyGlue's $9/month — it's not a subscription.
What happens if my ZestyGlue subscription lapses?
Events are silently dropped rather than causing errors on Vercel's side — Vercel never sees a failure response, so it won't retry aggressively or flag your webhook as broken. Your dashboard will simply stop showing new events until you resubscribe.
