Keep ActiveMerge workflow activity visible in Datadog
Give every important document workflow run a place in your Datadog event timeline, so operational context is easier to find when something goes wrong.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create event
Creates an event to record an important occurrence, such as a deployment or outage.
Why this helps
Document workflow problems can be hard to connect to the rest of an incident when run details are scattered across tools.
- Keep document workflow activity near related deployments and incidents.
- Include run status and useful context supplied by the webhook request.
- Reduce manual note taking during document workflow investigations.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe that each incoming ActiveMerge run notification should become a Datadog event with its available status and context.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real ActiveMerge run notification and confirm the event appears in Datadog.
Questions about this workflow
Does ActiveMerge provide a trigger for this workflow?
No ActiveMerge trigger event is listed here. The workflow starts when an HTTP request reaches its Notis webhook, so an external system must send the run notification.
What information can the event include?
Notis can use information present in the webhook request. Include the run status and any useful identifiers or error details in that request.
Does this create or change ActiveMerge documents?
No. The workflow records an event in Datadog and does not modify ActiveMerge documents.
