Formatted Webhook is primarily used for custom integrations using scripts. Use any http client, for example curl, to send POST requests with body using the format in the example below:

Body Fields Format:

• alert_uid [char][not required] - unique alert ID for grouping;
• title [char][not required] - title;
• image_url [char][not required] - url for image attached to alert;
• state [char][not required] - could be "ok" or "alerting", helpful for auto-resolving;
• link_to_upstream_details [char][not required] - link back to your monitoring system;
• message [char][not required] - alert details;

Request example:

curl -X POST \
  {{ alert_receive_channel.integration_url }} \
  -H 'Content-Type: Application/json' \
  -d '{
    "alert_uid": "08d6891a-835c-e661-39fa-96b6a9e26552",
    "title": "The whole system is down",
    "image_url": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/Grumpy_Cat_by_Gage_Skidmore.jpg",
    "state": "alerting",
    "link_to_upstream_details": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtime",
    "message": "Smth happened. Oh no!"
}'

Next steps:

1. 1. Add the routes and escalations in Escalations settings
2. 2. Check grouping, auto-resolving, and rendering templates in Alert Templates Settings
3. 3. Make sure all the users set up their Personal Notifications Settings on the Users Page
