ASM supports the configuration of webhooks in order to deliver customized, automated messages to predefined endpoints. The information which is delivered to these webhook endpoints can be static or dynamic.

What are Webhooks?

The concept of a Webhook is simple. A Webhook is an HTTP callback: an HTTP POST that occurs when something happens; i.e. a simple event-notification via HTTP POST. This means that Webhooks can deliver alerts using an HTTP POST, sent to any service with a configured URL that supports WebHooks. With no limit on what can be done with the posted information, applications can use WebHooks to perform any desired action.

The flexibility of a webhook allows ASM users to send much more data in an alert than they would be able to do using a non-webhook alert.

What Are Some ASM Webhook Features?

Apica integrates with 3rd-Party Alerting services, allowing companies using ASM to have alerts sent to the receiving management system of their choice.

The incident alerts are PUSHED by ASM to the selected system endpoint.

• The pushed data from ASM is either a Trigger or a Resolution of the alert.

The message can include dynamic Alerts Message Placeholders such as

• Check Location

• Check Description

• Check Name

• Date & Time of alert

• Etc.
