Set up Datadog webhooks from integration plans

When a notification integration is agreed and its destination is specified, create the Datadog webhook without retyping the details.

Trigger

Email Sent

Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.

Action

Create Webhook

Create a webhook in datadog. webhooks enable you to receive notifications from datadog monitors and alerts to external services and applications.

Why this helps

Integration setup details are sent to the team but the webhook can remain unconfigured afterward.

  • Create webhooks from explicit sent setup instructions.
  • Keep the integration plan near the resulting Datadog configuration.
  • Flag absent or ambiguous destination details for follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to create a webhook only from an explicit, complete integration plan.
  • 3Pick Email Sent as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with a sent plan that includes the intended destination details.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow choose a destination that is not in the email?

No. The destination must be provided in the message or your instruction. Ask Notis to flag missing details.

Does creating the webhook configure every monitor to use it?

No. This action creates a webhook. Monitor notification configuration is a separate task.
