Trigger

New or Updated Opportunity

Triggers when a Salesforce Opportunity is created or updated.

Action

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.

Why this helps

A customer launch can depend on an API check that is easy to leave until the last minute.

  • Start test setup from a relevant opportunity change.
  • Keep endpoint and test details in one instruction.
  • Create a repeatable path for API readiness checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Salesforce and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to create a Datadog synthetic API test after a qualifying opportunity change, supplying the endpoint and required test details.
  • 4Pick the New or Updated Opportunity trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real opportunity change and review the created test.

Questions about this workflow

Does the opportunity trigger know when a launch is ready?

The trigger reports that an opportunity was created or updated. State in your instruction which milestone context to use, and supply it if it is not returned.

Can the test run from a location I have not selected?

Provide the desired configuration in your instruction. Use the Datadog Get Synthetics Locations action separately if you need to retrieve available location identifiers.
