Action

Create event

Why this helps

Deployment context stays in chat and is missing when someone investigates a later alert.

  • Preserves deployment context
  • Improves incident correlation
  • Removes duplicate note taking

  • 1Connect Discord and Datadog once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation telling Notis to create a Datadog event from each deployment message, including the stated service and change details.
  • 3Pick New Discord Message Trigger for the deployment channel.
  • 4Choose the report channel.
  • 5Test with one real deployment note.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis avoid creating events for casual messages?

Yes. Instruct it to act only when the message clearly describes a deployment or release.

What if the service is not named?

Notis can flag the missing service instead of guessing.
