There's not really much to understand: 1. Alertmanager makes a HTTP connection to your webhook. The only mandatory configuration is "url", which is the URL where to send the webhook request to. 2. The documentation then shows the format of the webhook payload (body) which your webhook server will receive.
Therefore, all you need to do is to write a small web server in any language of your choice, which receives the webhook request, and acts on it however you want. If you google for "alertmanager webhook run script" then you'll get the following as the first three hits: https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/issues/2046 https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/issues/354 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66811176/i-want-to-execute-shell-script-through-prometheus-alert-manger-when-ever-alert-m which in turn will link you to some ready-made solutions: https://github.com/adnanh/webhook https://github.com/imgix/prometheus-am-executor On Monday, 18 April 2022 at 07:46:02 UTC+1 [email protected] wrote: > Hi, > > Can you please more details on this, I didn't understand the > webhook_config link. > > On Monday, 4 April 2022 at 23:08:53 UTC+5:30 Brian Candler wrote: > >> https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/latest/configuration/#webhook_config >> >> You need to write your own webhook receiver, which will be a simple >> webserver, in a language of your choice. >> >> On Monday, 4 April 2022 at 17:11:33 UTC+1 [email protected] wrote: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> Can you please help me with how to execute the script on alert triggers? >>> >>> Regards, >>> Chanti >>> >>> >>> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
