Bring service check status and incident context together
Have Notis gather service checks and relevant incident messages into a recurring review, making the next follow-up easier to see.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List service checks
Lists service checks from datadog. service checks are status checks that track the health of your services and infrastructure components.
Why this helps
Service checks and incident discussions are viewed separately, which can make it harder to spot which failing component needs attention first.
- Connects check status with relevant incident context
- Reduces manual gathering during triage
- Surfaces prioritized follow-up candidates
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis which service checks and Ably incident messages to review and what conditions should be highlighted.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one known service issue and confirm the report includes relevant checks.
Questions about this workflow
Will it diagnose the root cause of a failed check?
No. It can summarize available check and incident context, but the workflow should not claim a cause that the data does not establish.
Can it use an incident history?
Only if the relevant history is returned by the connected apps or you provide the reference period and context.
