Notis

Turn an endpoint request into a synthetic API test

Provide the endpoint and the checks you care about. Notis can use Agenty to gather context and create a Datadog API test from your instruction.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Synthetic API Test

Creates a synthetic API test to monitor API availability and performance from multiple locations.

Why this helps

Turning a request to monitor an endpoint into a configured availability check can get lost between research and setup.

  • Convert a concrete monitoring request into a Datadog test.
  • Use Agenty to gather endpoint context before creation.
  • Keep the requested checks and run result together.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agenty and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, specify the endpoint, expected behavior, and desired test locations; ask Agenty to gather relevant endpoint context before creation.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real endpoint request and review the created test.

Questions about this workflow

What must I include in the request?

Provide the endpoint, expected behavior, and desired test locations. Any checks or values that are not available from the endpoint must be supplied in the instruction.

Can Agenty trigger this when it finds an endpoint?

No Agenty trigger event is listed for this package. A Notis webhook starts the automation when it receives an HTTP request.
