Why this helps
Important outage announcements in a channel can be separated from the monitoring timeline used during follow-up.
- Capture channel outage announcements as Datadog events.
- Keep incident context easier to find during follow-up.
- Reduce duplicate manual recording across tools.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Datadog to Notis once in the portal; make the bot an administrator in the source channel.
- 2Create an automation with one prompt that tells Notis which outage announcements to record as Datadog events.
- 3Select New Channel Post as the trigger and choose the channel for run reports.
- 4Test by publishing a suitable test outage update in the channel.
