Questions about this workflow
Does the usage summary calculate campaign-specific costs?
No. The action retrieves Datadog usage metrics. Any campaign-specific interpretation or cost allocation requires relevant context or data supplied to the automation.
Can I choose the reporting cadence?
Yes. Pick a recurring Notis schedule that fits your review routine.
