Track scheduled Agility publishing with a Better Stack heartbeat

Scheduled content jobs are easy to forget until a release is late. Use a Better Stack heartbeat to make missed Agility publishing check-ins visible.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Heartbeat

Creates a heartbeat monitor that checks for regular signals from a service.

Why this helps

A scheduled publish can stop running without an obvious signal until someone notices stale content.

  • Add heartbeat monitoring for a scheduled publishing job.
  • Make missed check-ins visible in Better Stack.
  • Give routine content operations a clear monitoring signal.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and Better Stack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for the scheduled publishing job.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Better Stack heartbeat for the Agility CMS publishing task and include the schedule context you provide.
  • 4Pick a Notis cron trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real scheduled job example and confirm the heartbeat is created.

Questions about this workflow

Will this heartbeat itself confirm that an Agility publish succeeded?

The listed action creates a heartbeat monitor. Your publishing process still needs to send the heartbeat check-ins, and any success signal must come from the information or setup you provide.

Does the cron trigger run the CMS publishing job?

No. It starts the Notis automation on a schedule. The Better Stack action creates the heartbeat monitor.
