Check the Elasticsearch connection before an audit search
Catch a connection problem early by having Notis ping Elasticsearch when an audit search is requested.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Ping Cluster
Pings the cluster to check its connectivity and health.
Why this helps
Teams can lose time preparing an audit search before discovering that Elasticsearch is unreachable.
- Confirm cluster responsiveness at the moment it matters.
- Give the team a clear signal before search work begins.
- Reduce time spent troubleshooting after a failed lookup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 21risk and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Describe how an audit search request should ping the cluster and report the response.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real request and review the connectivity report.
Questions about this workflow
Does a successful ping guarantee a query will work?
No. A ping checks cluster connectivity, not index existence, permissions, or query validity.
Does this run an audit search too?
No. This workflow only pings the cluster and reports the response.
