Notis

Keep document processing visible in Datadog

Capture key document workflow milestones as Datadog events so your team can investigate them alongside service activity.

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 processing issues are hard to investigate when the run context is separated from infrastructure events.

  • Keep run milestones available for incident investigation.
  • Include request context supplied to the webhook.
  • Reduce manual incident timeline updates.

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 for each document run milestone, using only details supplied with the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real document run request.

Questions about this workflow

Does Affinda automatically trigger this workflow?

No. Affinda has no listed trigger events. A Notis webhook starts the automation, and its request should include the document run context.

What details can the event include?

Notis can use details supplied with the webhook request. Do not assume information that the request or connected apps do not provide.
