Review Datadog usage with your push activity

See the Datadog usage summary on a predictable cadence, with campaign activity context available in the same report.

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 checks are easy to postpone when they require a separate console visit and no clear connection to current work.

  • Make usage reviews part of a recurring routine.
  • Keep campaign context close to infrastructure usage.
  • Reduce manual console checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AimTell and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the usage review.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: retrieve Datadog usage summary information and include relevant AimTell activity context that is available.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and a destination for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real run and confirm the report contains the usage period you need.

Questions about this workflow

Does the usage summary include every Datadog billing detail?

The action retrieves usage summary information such as API calls, hosts, and containers. Confirm the fields returned meet your review needs.

Will AimTell provide a historical comparison baseline?

Only if that context is available to the automation. Provide a baseline separately if you need a comparison not returned by the connected apps.
