Reduce alert noise during planned agency maintenance

When an AgencyZoom maintenance plan includes a clear time window and scope, create Datadog downtime so planned work does not create avoidable alert noise.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create downtime

Creates downtime to silence alerts during maintenance or planned outages.

Why this helps

Planned maintenance can generate alerts that distract from issues needing immediate attention.

  • Reduce alert noise during defined maintenance windows.
  • Use maintenance context already available to the team.
  • Keep planned work and monitoring operations connected.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgencyZoom and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create Datadog downtime only for a confirmed AgencyZoom maintenance window with a clear time range and affected scope.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real maintenance plan and verify the downtime details.

Questions about this workflow

Will this silence every alert in Datadog?

The downtime scope depends on the information supplied and the Datadog action configuration. Define the intended scope explicitly.

What if the maintenance window is missing a start or end time?

Do not create downtime until the required time range is available and confirmed.
