Keep monitoring resources connected to workflow context
Add a small, useful context note to a Better Stack resource so the team can connect monitoring work with an ActiveMerge generation or merge process.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Metadata
Creates or updates resource metadata, replacing the existing value for the same key.
Why this helps
Monitoring resources can lose the operational context that explains which document or generation workflows they support.
- Keep workflow context close to a monitoring resource
- Make resource review more informative
- Refresh metadata through a scheduled automation
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Better Stack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis what supplied ActiveMerge workflow context to save as metadata on a Better Stack resource.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real resource and verify the metadata value.
Questions about this workflow
Will the automation discover ActiveMerge workflow details?
No ActiveMerge trigger events are listed. Provide the workflow context and Better Stack resource identifier to the scheduled run.
What happens to an existing metadata value with the same key?
The Better Stack action replaces existing values for the specified key, so use a key whose replacement is intended.
