Know whether Desktime is reachable
Run a lightweight scheduled ping before a regular reporting or planning routine and see the result in your chosen report channel.
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 routine can lose time when an unavailable service is discovered only after you start the task.
- Check API reachability on a predictable schedule.
- Spot availability issues before a dependent routine begins.
- Keep the result visible in a chosen report channel.

Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notis to Desktime once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe the check to Notis.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to ping the Desktime API and report availability.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports go.
- 5Test once and review the ping result.
