Add recent Datadog context to deployment records
Give each new deployment entry a quick look at the Datadog event timeline around the change.
Trigger
New Rows in Google Sheet
Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.
Action
List events
Lists events from datadog within a specified time range. events track important occurrences like deployments, outages, and configuration changes.
Why this helps
Deployment records rarely tell the whole story when related events are scattered across a separate monitoring tool.
- See events around a deployment window.
- Keep operational context near the release record.
- Make post-deployment review easier to start.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Describe the Datadog event time range and context to retrieve from each deployment row.
- 4Choose the New Rows in Google Sheet trigger and select where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real deployment row.
