Automations
An automation is a specific flow that, given a specific rule will, if valid, execute a set of pre-defined actions. At this moment, automations get assessed for each new ingested trace and check.
You can view all your existing automations by clicking on Automations
in the sidebar.
Name
A name for the automation to easily identify it later.
Enabled
Whether the automation is currently enabled. If disabled, the automation will not be evaluated and will never trigger. This is useful for drafts.
Sampling Rate
How often the automation should be evaluated, between 0 and 1. A value of 1 means every time, 0.5 half the time, and 0 never.
Rule
Each automation has a set of rules that determine when it should trigger. The rules are evaluated against the incoming data.
Actions
The actions to perform when the automation triggers. You must ensure your actions work with the resource type detected from the rule (trace
).
The currently available actions are:
- Send Webhook
- Run Evaluation
An automation can only target one resource type (i.e., trace, check). Therefore, an automation rule such as trace.name == "some-name" && check.outcome == "pass"
will always be skipped. If you need to run the same set of actions for both resources, create two distinct automations.
