Check DeskTime is reachable before your content review

Catch a connection issue before a planned review turns into a last-minute troubleshooting detour.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Ping DeskTime API

Check whether the service is available.

Why this helps

A scheduled review loses time when the team only discovers that DeskTime is unavailable after the meeting starts.

  • Check whether the DeskTime API is reachable and responsive.
  • Surface availability context ahead of a planned review.
  • Reduce the chance of beginning a review without knowing whether tracking data can be fetched.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and describe the review readiness check.
  • 3Tell Notis to ping DeskTime and report whether the API is available before the content review.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule, choose where run reports go, and test with one real review window.

Questions about this workflow

Does a successful ping guarantee all DeskTime actions will work?

No. It checks API availability and responsiveness; it does not guarantee that every action or credential-dependent request will succeed.

Does Agility CMS start this check?

No. Agility CMS trigger events are not available here. This workflow uses a Notis schedule.
