Check Elasticsearch connectivity when campaign work arrives

Confirm Elasticsearch responds before spending time on a campaign data search.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Ping Cluster

Pings the cluster to check its connectivity and health.

Why this helps

When Elasticsearch is unreachable, a campaign investigation can stall without a clear signal about where the problem began.

  • Check cluster connectivity at the start of a campaign investigation.
  • Surface a reachability issue in the run report.
  • Avoid confusing a connection problem with missing campaign records.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named ActiveTrail Elasticsearch connectivity check.
  • 3Tell Notis to ping the Elasticsearch cluster when the webhook arrives and report whether it responds.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and provide its endpoint to the system sending the payload.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real webhook payload.

Questions about this workflow

Does a successful ping confirm that campaign records exist?

No. A ping checks cluster connectivity. It does not search for documents or confirm that an index contains campaign data.

Can this replace an index search?

No. Use Query Index to search documents after confirming the cluster is reachable.
