Turn a response plan into a Datadog On-Call policy
Move explicit escalation steps into Datadog so the response plan is ready to support on-call incidents.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create On-Call escalation policy
Creates an on-call escalation policy.
Why this helps
Response plans can exist on paper while the escalation policy needed to follow them remains unconfigured.
- Translate explicit response steps into an escalation policy.
- Spot missing escalation details before setup.
- Reduce manual transcription of on-call procedures.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to review the submitted response plan and create a policy only when its escalation steps and required details are explicit.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real response plan and verify the policy.
Questions about this workflow
Will this assign responders not named in the plan?
No. The workflow should use the submitted plan and report missing responder or escalation details rather than inventing them.
What does an escalation policy do?
It defines how an on-call response is escalated.
