Add channel
Next add one or multiple target Webhook channels.
1. Visit Admin → Channels and click Webhook

2. Setup the configuration options

For example the above will create the DevOps Webhook
, that is using the Webhook connection to POST
information to the Webhook endpoint.
You can optionally add a specific request path for the POST
, custom HTTP headers and body payload. Moreover, you can
optionally disable SSL certificate verification.
Template variables
In Request path
, HTTP Headers
and Body payload
fields there is a possibility of using template variables, which will be translated
to alert specific fields. In order to use template variables you have to use this format: {{VARIABLE}}
, i.e. {{LEVEL}}
.
Supported template variables:
- LEVEL - alert level (
INFO
,LOW
,MEDIUM
,HIGH
,CRITICAL
). - CATEGORY - alert category (
Infrastructure
,Consumers
,Kafka Connect
,Topics
,Producers
). - INSTANCE - (broker url / topic name etc.).
- SUMMARY - alert summary - same content we can see in Alert Events tab.
- TIMESTAMP
- ID - alert global id (i.e.
1000
for BrokerStatus alert). - CREDS -
CREDS[0]
etc. - variables specified in connection’sCredentials
as a list of values separated by comma.
An example
If for example you create a rule to send infrastructure notifications to Webhook,
then the moment a Broker becomes offline, an HTTP POST
will be made to the Webhook endpoint.
Additional info
Users with the alert permission can create alert rules .
