Bring document run context into Datadog investigations
Add run details supplied by your team to Datadog's event timeline when a document workflow needs investigation.
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
Investigators may lack the document run context needed to connect an operational incident with affected work.
- Put supplied run context in the event timeline.
- Make it easier to correlate document work and service activity.
- Reduce manual context gathering during investigation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Datadog event from the incident and document run details provided.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real incident example and check the event.
