Why this helps
A signal buried in analytics can go unnoticed until someone runs the right query and spots it.
- Use a defined threshold that matches your business.
- Bring a relevant data signal into Telegram.
- Avoid scanning results when no alert condition is met.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ClickHouse and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, identify the ClickHouse query, your threshold, and what the Telegram alert should say when it is met.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example, including a result on each side of the threshold if available.
Questions about this workflow
Does ClickHouse send the webhook automatically?
A webhook starts this automation when an HTTP request reaches its trigger. You need a caller that sends that request.
Will Notis decide a suitable threshold?
No. State the threshold and its meaning in your instruction. Notis can interpret the query result against that condition.
What if the query result has no baseline?
Provide any required baseline or comparison value in your instruction or data source. Notis cannot infer missing history.
