Scheduled Monitoring of Elasticsearch Alerts with Automatic Azure DevOps Work Item Creation
This workflow automatically queries alarm data in Elasticsearch at scheduled times every day, intelligently determining whether there are any alarm messages. When an alarm is detected, it automatically creates the corresponding task ticket in Azure DevOps, thereby improving the response speed and processing efficiency of alarms. Through this automated process, the team can promptly track and manage potential issues, avoiding the inefficiencies of manual queries and task creation, ensuring that each alarm is effectively addressed and enhancing overall work efficiency.

Workflow Name
Scheduled Monitoring of Elasticsearch Alerts with Automatic Azure DevOps Work Item Creation
Key Features and Highlights
This workflow automates the daily scheduled query of alert data in Elasticsearch, intelligently determines the presence of alerts based on query results, and automatically creates corresponding work items in Azure DevOps when alerts are detected. It helps teams promptly track and address potential issues. Highlights include automated triggering, precise alert detection, and seamless integration with Azure DevOps work item management.
Core Problems Addressed
It resolves the inefficiency of manually querying alert information and creating tasks, preventing alert omissions and improving alert response speed and issue resolution efficiency.
Application Scenarios
Ideal for technical operations teams, development teams, or any organization relying on Elasticsearch for log and metric monitoring. By automating alert-driven task generation, it enables rapid response and tracking management of operational alerts.
Main Process Steps
- Scheduled Trigger (Cron Trigger): Automatically starts the workflow daily at 12:15 PM.
- Query Alerts (Elasticsearch Query): Executes a predefined Elasticsearch query to retrieve current alert data.
- Check Alert Count (Check for Alerts): Determines if the number of alert entries in the query result is greater than zero.
- Create Work Item (Create Work Item): If alerts exist, calls the Azure DevOps API to automatically create a work item.
- No Operation (No Operation): If no alerts are found, no action is taken and the workflow ends.
Involved Systems or Services
- Elasticsearch: Used for storing and querying monitoring alert data.
- Azure DevOps: Used for creating and managing work items to support subsequent alert handling.
- Cron Scheduled Trigger: Enables automatic daily execution.
Target Users and Value
This workflow is suitable for operations engineers, SRE teams, development managers, and project management personnel. It facilitates automated management of alert events, streamlines alert response processes, and enhances team efficiency and emergency handling capabilities. By automatically creating work items, it ensures every alert is tracked and resolved, significantly reducing the risk of issues being overlooked due to human error.
PRISM Elastic Alert Email Notification Automation Workflow
This workflow automatically retrieves alarm data from the PRISM Elastic API and sends formatted email notifications to designated users via the Microsoft Graph API. Triggered on a schedule without manual intervention, it ensures timely responses and prevents the omission of important alarm information. The email content includes the alarm name, severity level, and detailed information, helping IT operations and security teams improve efficiency, quickly address abnormal events, and build an intelligent monitoring system.
Get DNS entries
This workflow is designed to automatically retrieve DNS records for a specified domain name. Users only need to manually trigger it to quickly generate domain information and call external API interfaces to obtain complete DNS entries. By integrating the query process, it significantly enhances work efficiency and reduces the complexity of manual operations. It is suitable for professionals such as IT operations personnel, network administrators, and developers, helping them quickly understand and monitor the DNS configuration of domains.
Website Check
This workflow automatically accesses a specified website at scheduled intervals to check if the webpage content contains specific keywords, such as "Out Of Stock." Based on the detection results, it sends different alert messages via Discord, enabling real-time monitoring of the website's status. It is suitable for e-commerce sellers, procurement personnel, and others, helping users quickly become aware of inventory changes, improving the efficiency and accuracy of information retrieval, and avoiding the hassle of manually refreshing the webpage.
Manual Triggered File Download and Automatic Sharing to Slack
This workflow allows users to automatically download files from a specified URL through a simple manual trigger and upload them to a Slack channel with a custom comment. This process effectively addresses the cumbersome task of cross-platform file retrieval and team sharing, avoiding the repetitive downloading and uploading process. It ensures that team members can quickly access the latest resources, enhancing collaboration efficiency, and is particularly suitable for product managers, designers, and remote collaboration teams.
Create_Unique_Jira_Tickets_from_Splunk_Alerts
This workflow can automatically convert Splunk alerts into unique Jira tickets, preventing duplicate ticket creation. It intelligently assesses existing tickets and updates relevant information in real-time, ensuring data integrity and consistency. Additionally, it automatically standardizes hostname formats, enhancing the accuracy of ticket fields. This process significantly improves the response speed and management efficiency of security operations and IT operations teams, reduces manual intervention, lowers the risk of errors, and optimizes the alert handling process.
Example - Backup n8n to Nextcloud
This workflow automatically backs up workflow configurations to Nextcloud cloud storage to ensure data security. Users can choose to schedule tasks or manually trigger the backup process. The system retrieves workflow details by calling an API, merges and converts them into binary format, and then uploads them to the cloud for centralized management and convenient recovery. This solution is suitable for teams or individuals who need to regularly back up and protect workflow data, significantly improving operational efficiency and reducing the complexity of manual operations.
Dropbox Folder Change Monitoring and Automated Processing Workflow
This workflow monitors changes in a specified Dropbox folder in real-time through a Webhook, automatically detecting newly added or modified files. It filters out known files using a database to ensure that only new files trigger subsequent automated processing. It supports monitoring multiple folders and offers a flexible file filtering mechanism, enhancing the efficiency of file change management. This is suitable for scenarios such as content creation, team collaboration, and IT automation, significantly reducing manual intervention and improving work efficiency.
Weekly_Shodan_Query___Report_Accidents__no_function_node_
This workflow automatically monitors IP addresses and their ports within the enterprise's internal systems on a weekly basis. It utilizes the Shodan API to scan for open ports and services, promptly identifying any unexpected abnormal ports. The information is organized into a Markdown format report, which is then pushed to TheHive platform for quick response. Its core advantages lie in enhancing monitoring efficiency, reducing human oversight, ensuring network security, and helping the security team stay informed about potential risks, thereby building an efficient security protection system.
