Retrieve monitor details when a webhook arrives

Send a monitor id when you need its configuration details. Notis can fetch the Better Stack monitor and put the result into a run report for quick review.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Monitor

Tool to get a single monitor. use when you need full details of a specific monitor by its id.

Why this helps

A specific monitor's settings can take time to locate when context is split between an alert, a ticket, and the monitoring dashboard.

  • Look up a monitor without manually navigating to it.
  • Keep the request focused on one known monitor id.
  • Use the report to carry details into the next decision.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Better Stack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations, or tell Notis from any channel to create it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve full details for the monitor id included in each incoming request and summarize key information in the report.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real monitor id and confirm the details match the intended monitor.

Questions about this workflow

Can I look up a monitor by name instead of id?

The action retrieves a monitor by its id. Include the id in the request or provide a reliable way for Notis to obtain it.

Does this change the monitor?

No. This action retrieves monitor details for review.
