Turn monitoring back on after planned work

Close the loop on maintenance by restoring alerts when your stated completion condition is met.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Unmute Monitor

Unmute a monitor in datadog. re-enables alerts from a previously muted monitor, returning it to normal monitoring and alerting behavior. use this after maintenance windows or issue resolution to resume monitoring.

Why this helps

A muted monitor can stay quiet after work ends if nobody remembers to re-enable it.

  • Restore alerting on a named monitor after work.
  • Tie the request to a completion condition you state.
  • Reduce the chance of leaving monitoring muted.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 21risk and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the alert restoration.
  • 3Describe in one instruction which monitor to unmute and what completion condition must be satisfied.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real monitor example and verify it is unmuted.

Questions about this workflow

Can this run at the end of a mute duration automatically?

This workflow starts from a Notis webhook. Use a schedule if you want a time-based run, or invoke the webhook when the completion condition is confirmed.

Will it unmute every monitor?

No. Specify the monitor or monitors to restore.
