Check endpoint reachability after a release
Give release follow-through a lightweight network check: a Slack launch update can prompt Notis to measure the named endpoint from Globalping probes.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Create Measurement
Tool to create and trigger a network measurement. Use when you need connectivity checks from specific geographic or network locations.
Why this helps
After shipping, founders may move straight to the next task and forget to verify whether a public endpoint is reachable.
- Put a reachability check next to the release update that prompted it.
- Reduce the chance that endpoint verification gets lost in a busy launch day.
- Collect distributed observations to support follow-up decisions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Globalping to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal and write one plain-language instruction to start a Globalping measurement for the hostname named in release posts in the selected Slack channel.
- 3Choose the Slack Channel Message Received trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Test by posting a release update that includes a hostname.
Questions about this workflow
Will every release post start a measurement?
The automation responds to the selected Slack trigger. Describe in the prompt which release updates should lead to a check and include the endpoint hostname.
Does the measurement replace release monitoring?
No. It provides an additional network measurement from Globalping probes.
