Review system events against the shift calendar

Trigger

Action

List events

Why this helps

Event timelines show what happened technically but often omit the operating schedule around it.

  • Add schedule context to event reviews
  • Spot recurring shift time patterns
  • Receive a focused report on important events

  • 1Connect 7shifts and Datadog in the Notis portal once.
  • 2Create an automation for a scheduled event and shift review.
  • 3Tell Notis to list Datadog events for the chosen period and interpret them using available 7shifts schedule context.
  • 4Choose a recurring Notis cron trigger and select the report channel.
  • 5Run one review with a real period and refine the instruction if needed.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create or change Datadog events?

No. It uses List events to create a report.

Can it focus on a specific shift window?

Yes, state the time window and scope in the automation instruction.

What if the schedule does not explain an event?
