Review your Datadog host inventory regularly

Get a regular snapshot of hosts and their returned status and tags without a manual inventory pass.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

List hosts

Lists all hosts in your datadog infrastructure with detailed information including metrics, tags, and status. useful for infrastructure monitoring and management.

Why this helps

Infrastructure changes can leave host lists and metadata harder to keep in view.

  • Make host inventory easier to scan.
  • Keep returned status and tag details visible.
  • Reduce manual infrastructure review steps.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to list hosts and summarize returned status and tags, calling out unusual details for review.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real run.

Questions about this workflow

Does this confirm a host is healthy?

It summarizes the status information returned by Datadog and does not add checks beyond that data.

Can it update hosts automatically?

This workflow only lists hosts. Updating tags would require a separate automation using the host tag update action.
