Why this helps
When an integration seems quiet, it is hard to tell whether the service is reachable without checking manually.
- Check DeskTime API reachability on a recurring basis.
- Get a report when the ping runs.
- Separate basic service availability checks from data retrieval.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Ask Notis to ping DeskTime and report the availability result plainly.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test one run and confirm you can see its result in the report channel.
Questions about this workflow
Does a successful ping mean all DeskTime features work?
No. It checks that the API is available and responsive; it does not verify every endpoint or workflow.
Can this automatically fix an outage?
