Make infrastructure ownership easier to see

When a host is assigned in your Notion inventory, have Notis update its Datadog tags so infrastructure context is easier to find during triage.

Trigger

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

Action

Update host tags

Updates tags for a specific host in datadog. this replaces all existing tags from the specified source with the new tags provided.

Why this helps

Ownership data can be captured in an inventory without being reflected where people inspect hosts and troubleshoot service issues.

  • Make ownership context easier to find in Datadog.
  • Reduce repeated tagging work.
  • Help route infrastructure follow-ups to the right owner.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Datadog to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation or ask Notis to update Datadog host tags from new ownership records.
  • 3Describe how to identify the host and which ownership context should be reflected.
  • 4Select New Page for the host inventory database and choose a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one host record and verify its tags in Datadog.

Questions about this workflow

Can the automation locate the right host?

Describe the identifying context clearly in the prompt and confirm the first result before relying on it.

Will this preserve existing tags?

The action updates host tags. Review Datadog behavior and the first result to ensure the intended tags remain represented.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Datadog. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

Datadog actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Create Dashboard

Create a dashboard in datadog. dashboards provide customizable visualizations for monitoring your infrastructure, applications, and business metrics in a unified view.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Create downtime

Creates a new downtime in datadog to suppress alerts during maintenance windows or planned outages. useful for preventing false alarms during deployments or maintenance.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Create event

Creates a new event in datadog. events are useful for tracking deployments, outages, configuration changes, and other important occurrences.

ActionInstant

Comment Created

Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.

TriggerInstant

Create monitor

Creates a new datadog monitor to track metrics, logs, or other data sources with configurable alerting thresholds and notifications.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Create SLO

Create a service level objective (slo) in datadog. slos help you define and track reliability targets for your services, enabling data-driven decisions about service quality and reliability investments.

ActionInstant

Database Created

Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.

TriggerInstant

Create Synthetic API Test

Create a synthetic api test in datadog. creates a new synthetic api test that continuously monitors api endpoints from multiple locations worldwide. useful for proactive monitoring of api uptime, performance, and functionality.

ActionInstant

Data Source Created

Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.

TriggerInstant

Create Webhook

Create a webhook in datadog. webhooks enable you to receive notifications from datadog monitors and alerts to external services and applications.

ActionInstant

Data Source Schema Updated

Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.

TriggerInstant

Delete Dashboard

Delete a dashboard in datadog. permanently removes a dashboard from your organization. this action cannot be undone. use with caution.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and Datadog, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
