Review what happened around a release
When a release raises questions, bring the Datadog event timeline for its supplied time range into the release record workflow.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
List events
Lists events from a specified time range.
Why this helps
Release investigation can miss related changes or outages when event history is checked separately.
- Review Datadog events in the release's specified time range.
- Bring change and outage context into release follow-up.
- Reduce manual event browsing.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for release reviews.
- 3Tell Notis to list Datadog events in the time range supplied by each release record and summarize relevant returned events.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one release record that includes a clear time range.
Questions about this workflow
Does this guarantee the events are caused by the release?
No. It retrieves events in the supplied time range. Treat relevance and causality as items to review, not assumptions.
What if the release record has no time range?
Supply one in the record or automation instruction so the lookup is bounded.
