Check service metrics after private issue changes

Use a meaningful change in a private reliability issue to check the Datadog metrics that can confirm whether a service is behaving as expected.

Trigger

Private Team Issue Properties Updated

Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).

Action

Query metrics

Queries datadog metrics and returns time series data. useful for retrieving historical metric data, creating custom dashboards, or building reports.

Why this helps

Responders often need to switch context from a private issue to metrics just to check whether a suspected change is affecting service health.

  • Bring a quick metric check into the issue workflow.
  • Reduce the effort of repeated manual dashboard searches.
  • Surface an early signal when a change may affect service health.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Datadog to Notis once through the portal with access to the private team.
  • 2Create a named automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction to query relevant Datadog metrics when a private issue update indicates a possible service regression and summarize the time window used.
  • 4Select Private Team Issue Properties Updated, pick a channel for run reports, and test with one real regression-related update.

Questions about this workflow

Does every property update run a metrics query?

The prompt should narrow action to changes that indicate a possible service regression or a meaningful reliability check.

What should the report contain?

Ask Notis to summarize the metric result and the time period considered so the signal is easier to interpret.
