Review your Datadog hosts without a manual scan
Bring the host inventory and its available details into a regular report for a faster infrastructure check.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List hosts
Lists all hosts in your datadog infrastructure with detailed information including metrics, tags, and status. useful for infrastructure monitoring and management.
Why this helps
Keeping track of hosts and their metadata takes repeated navigation that is easy to postpone.
- Review available host details in one report.
- Reduce repeated manual host list checks.
- Make host metadata easier to scan.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list hosts and summarize returned status and tags, flagging unavailable details rather than inferring them.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real run and confirm the report is focused on useful host details.
Questions about this workflow
Can the report tell which hosts are unhealthy?
Only if the returned host data includes an appropriate status. The instruction should tell Notis to distinguish returned status from assumptions.
Can this check a particular group of hosts?
Include the desired scope in your instruction if the action supports filtering. The listed action may return the broader host inventory.
