Notis

Review monitors and validation health in one report

Bring the current monitor list and a scheduled validation result into the same review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List monitors

Lists monitors configured in your organization.

Why this helps

A recurring health check and the alerting setup meant to watch it are often reviewed in separate sessions.

  • See the monitor inventory alongside a current Abstract check.
  • Highlight only review criteria you specify.
  • Reduce manual switching between status checks and monitor lists.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the review.
  • 3Tell Notis to run the specified Abstract check, list Datadog monitors, and summarize any items matching the review criteria you provide.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and review the report against the current monitor list.

Questions about this workflow

Can it decide whether a monitor is misconfigured?

It can compare returned monitor details with criteria you supply. It should not assume a configuration standard that you have not specified.

Does it update any monitors?

No. This workflow lists and summarizes monitor details.

What does the check need?

Provide a valid input and the intended Abstract validation action in the automation instruction.
