Keep incident follow-ups connected to the event timeline

Let a new incident action item create a Datadog event, making follow-up work easier to place against the incident it is meant to improve.

Trigger

New Page

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

Action

Create event

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

Why this helps

Incident actions often move into a task database where their connection to the operational incident becomes less visible.

  • Make incident follow-up milestones easier to trace.
  • Keep operational context connected to recovery work.
  • Reduce duplicate status logging.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Datadog to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Ask Notis to record new incident action items as Datadog events, or use that as the portal prompt.
  • 3Describe the incident context and action milestone that should appear in the event.
  • 4Select New Page for the incident actions database and choose a reporting channel.
  • 5Test by adding one action item and checking the Datadog timeline.

Questions about this workflow

Can this be limited to a specific incident?

Scope the trigger to the relevant data source and describe any additional condition in the instruction.

Does the event replace the Notion task?

No. The workflow adds an operational timeline reference while the action item remains in Notion.

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.
