Ways Notis can move work from Google Docs to Datadog
Log new deployment docs in Datadog
When a new Google Doc records a deployment, add a searchable Datadog event for the release timeline.
Search Datadog logs when incident notes change
When an incident document is updated, search Datadog logs for related evidence and summarize the findings in the run report.
Mute a Datadog monitor for a documented maintenance window
When a specified maintenance phrase appears in a Google Doc, mute the relevant Datadog monitor as instructed.
Create Datadog monitors from reviewed reliability docs
When a matching reliability document is created or updated, use its stated conditions to create a Datadog monitor.
Schedule Datadog downtime when a maintenance plan is filled
When placeholders are filled in a specific maintenance document, create Datadog downtime using the completed window and scope.
Create a Datadog dashboard when a service brief reaches its threshold
When a monitored Google Doc reaches its configured word or character threshold, create a Datadog dashboard from the service metrics it explicitly identifies.
Get a scheduled Datadog monitor review
On a recurring schedule, list Datadog monitors and summarize their status and notable configuration details in a Notis report.
Receive a scheduled Datadog service metric snapshot
On a recurring schedule, query specified Datadog metrics over a chosen period and summarize the returned time series.
Get a recurring Datadog incident digest
On a schedule, list Datadog incidents and summarize their status and available impact details for a quick review.
Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Docs to Datadog. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Docs triggers
Datadog actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Dashboard
Create a dashboard in datadog. dashboards provide customizable visualizations for monitoring your infrastructure, applications, and business metrics in a unified view.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create downtime
Creates a new downtime in datadog to suppress alerts during maintenance windows or planned outages. useful for preventing false alarms during deployments or maintenance.
New Document Created
Triggers when a new Google Doc is created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected. Uses timestamp filtering to efficiently poll for new documents.
Create event
Creates a new event in datadog. events are useful for tracking deployments, outages, configuration changes, and other important occurrences.
Document Deleted
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is deleted (moved to trash). This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are trashed.
Create monitor
Creates a new datadog monitor to track metrics, logs, or other data sources with configurable alerting thresholds and notifications.
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Create SLO
Create a service level objective (slo) in datadog. slos help you define and track reliability targets for your services, enabling data-driven decisions about service quality and reliability investments.
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.
Create Synthetic API Test
Create a synthetic api test in datadog. creates a new synthetic api test that continuously monitors api endpoints from multiple locations worldwide. useful for proactive monitoring of api uptime, performance, and functionality.
Document Structure Changed
Triggers when a Google Doc's structure changes (headers/footers added/removed, tables/images count changes). This trigger monitors a specific document for structural changes like: - Headers added or removed - Footers added or removed - Tables added or removed - Images (inline objects) added or removed - Positioned objects added or removed - Footnotes added or removed
Create Webhook
Create a webhook in datadog. webhooks enable you to receive notifications from datadog monitors and alerts to external services and applications.
Document Updated
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is updated or modified. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are updated.
Delete Dashboard
Delete a dashboard in datadog. permanently removes a dashboard from your organization. this action cannot be undone. use with caution.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
Notis built this automation:
Watch every run.
