Notis

Move from a page concern to its request trace

Keep the page context close while investigating the actual request path behind a performance concern.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Trace by ID

Retrieves detailed information about a specific distributed trace.

Why this helps

A page performance concern can lead to slow investigation when the relevant trace ID is hard to find.

  • Retrieve detailed spans and timing for a known trace.
  • Keep page context attached to investigation output.
  • Make trace ID availability an explicit prerequisite.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis which page concern to review and provide or locate the Datadog trace ID to retrieve.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real page concern and a valid trace ID, then inspect the returned trace.

Questions about this workflow

Can Ahrefs provide the Datadog trace ID?

Not necessarily. A trace ID must be available from your request or related operational context; otherwise this action cannot retrieve a specific trace.

What does the trace contain?

The action retrieves details for a specific trace, including spans, timing, errors, and metadata when available.
