Follow an affiliate issue through its request trace
Turn a trace ID from an issue report into the detailed request path your team needs to investigate.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Trace by ID
Retrieves detailed information about a specific distributed trace.
Why this helps
Following a specific failed request is difficult when its trace identifier and incident context are separated.
- Retrieve spans, timing, errors, and metadata for a specific trace.
- Keep the trace linked to the supplied issue context.
- Reduce the time spent switching tools to begin an investigation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adtraction and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Datadog trace using the trace ID in the supplied issue report and summarize the relevant evidence.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real trace ID and confirm the result matches the request under investigation.
Questions about this workflow
Will Adtraction provide the Datadog trace ID?
Only if the trace ID is included in the information you send to the webhook. Adtraction has no listed trigger payload.
Can this workflow determine the root cause?
It retrieves trace details to support investigation. A trace may show useful evidence, but the workflow should not claim a root cause unless the evidence establishes one.
