Creating a Webhook

You can create a webhook.

Note

Only tenant administrators and MSP administrators can add webhooks.

Before You Begin

  • You must have a URL that is provided by the third-party application.

Procedure

  1. From the Global Command Center navigation pane, go to Manage > Config blueprint > System.

  2. Click the Webhooks tile.

    The Webhooks page appears.

  3. In the upper-right area of the page, click Add.

    The Add webhook page appears.

  4. In the Name field, enter a name for the webhook.

  5. In the URL field, enter the URL that is provided by the third-party application.

  6. Optional: If the third-party application accepts a token in the header instead of URL, enter the token in the Headers field.

    Enter the token in the following format: Authorization=.

  7. To secure the alerts, from the Authentication list, select Secret HMAC, and then enter a secret key.

    The secret HMAC key secures the transfer of the alert. The key must be 8000 or fewer characters. When the alert is transferred, the secret key generates a digest, which is verified by the receiving server.
