Turn Discord alert requests into Datadog monitors
Move from an agreed alert idea to monitoring with less setup friction.
Trigger
New Discord Message Trigger
Polls a specific Discord channel for new messages.
Action
Create monitor
Creates a new datadog monitor to track metrics, logs, or other data sources with configurable alerting thresholds and notifications.
Why this helps
Alert requests get acknowledged in chat but never become configured monitors.
- Captures agreed thresholds
- Reduces forgotten monitoring work
- Keeps the request and result connected
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Discord and Datadog once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation instructing Notis to create a monitor only when the message includes a metric or query, threshold, and notification intent.
- 3Pick New Discord Message Trigger for the alert request channel.
- 4Choose where reports should go.
- 5Test with one complete request.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis invent missing thresholds?
No. Tell it to ask for or report missing threshold details.
Can this be limited to approved requests?
Yes. Add the approval phrase or role context to the instruction.
