Keep reliability objectives in your regular review
Review the validation check and current SLO details together in one recurring report.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List SLOs
Lists configured service level objectives.
Why this helps
Reliability objectives can become stale or detached from the checks teams use to understand service health.
- Review current SLO details alongside a fresh validation check.
- Highlight objectives that match review criteria you provide.
- Keep reliability reviews on a predictable schedule.
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 SLO review.
- 3Tell Notis to run the specified Abstract check, list Datadog SLOs, and summarize relevant returned details using criteria you provide.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and inspect the report against current SLO data.
Questions about this workflow
Does listing SLOs calculate progress?
The action lists SLOs. Any progress summary must use data returned in the list or other available data you explicitly ask the workflow to retrieve.
Can this update an SLO target?
No. It lists and summarizes SLOs; the available events do not include an SLO update action.
Can it compare to last month?
Only if prior results or historical data are available to the automation.
