Keep service objectives visible with a weekly review

Reliability objectives are useful when they stay in view. Have Notis gather the available SLO information and send a short scheduled review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List SLOs

List service level objectives (slos) from datadog. service level objectives help you track the reliability and performance of your services by setting measurable targets for key metrics.

Why this helps

SLOs can be configured and then forgotten until a reliability issue brings them back into focus.

  • Bring the current SLO list into a recurring review
  • Summarize available objective details in one report
  • Make reliability conversations easier to start

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Weekly SLO review.
  • 3Tell Notis: List the Datadog SLOs and summarize the available objectives, targets, and details that should be reviewed this week.
  • 4Pick a weekly schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real SLO list and confirm the report is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Will the summary include current SLO attainment?

Only include attainment if the list action returns it. Otherwise, the report can summarize the available SLO details.

Can it decide whether an SLO is healthy?

The workflow can summarize returned data. Provide your evaluation rules if you want it to flag specific conditions.
