  • Create a repeatable KPI intake process

  • 3Tell Notis to interpret each response and query the requested Datadog metrics for the stated period.
  • 4Pick New Form Response and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real KPI request.

Questions about this workflow

Can the requester specify a time period?

Yes. Include the requested period in the Typeform response or in the automation instruction.

What happens when a metric name is ambiguous?
