Keep monitor configuration aligned with approved Jira changes
When a monitoring issue is updated with an approved threshold, have Notis apply the change to the identified monitor.
Trigger
Updated Issue
Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.
Action
Update monitor
Updates an existing datadog monitor with new configuration, thresholds, or notification settings. only specified fields will be updated.
Why this helps
Approved alert changes can remain in tickets while the corresponding monitor keeps its old configuration.
- Connect a recorded monitoring change to the corresponding monitor update.
- Reduce follow-up between approval and implementation.
- Use the value documented in the issue.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Ask Notis to update the identified Datadog monitor when a Jira monitoring issue is updated with an approved threshold change.
- 4Pick Jira Updated Issue as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real issue update and a known monitor.
