Notis

Fetch monitor details from Todoist tasks

Give every alert follow-up the monitor context needed to act quickly.

Trigger

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

Get monitor

Retrieves detailed information about a specific datadog monitor, including its current state, configuration, and any active downtimes.

Why this helps

Follow-up tasks often lack the current monitor state and configuration needed for a decision.

  • Adds current alert context
  • Reduces repeated dashboard hunting
  • Improves follow-up decisions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Todoist and Datadog in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Datadog monitor named or identified in each new task and summarize its state, configuration, and active downtimes.
  • 4Choose New Task Created and a report channel.
  • 5Test with a task containing a monitor identifier.

Questions about this workflow

Can the task reference a monitor by name?

Use a unique name or monitor ID so Datadog can identify the intended monitor.
