Make Datadog usage reviews easier to scan
Bring planned changes and usage figures into one scheduled run, with a short report that highlights the numbers your instruction asks Notis to review.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get usage summary
Retrieves usage totals, including API calls, hosts, and containers.
Why this helps
Usage figures and infrastructure plans can be reviewed separately, making it harder to spot questions that need follow-up.
- Get a recurring view of Datadog billable usage summaries.
- Add Agenty-gathered context about planned changes.
- Surface questions for follow-up in the run report.
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, name the sources Agenty should check and the Datadog usage figures or changes to highlight.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test one run and confirm the summary answers your review questions.
Questions about this workflow
Does the usage summary explain why usage changed?
It provides Datadog usage summary information. Agenty can gather context from sources you name, but causal explanations require evidence in those sources.
Can this calculate a cost baseline?
Only if the required historical values or baseline are available from the returned data or supplied in your instruction.
