Using alert manager with external receiver

[Nina Sc]

Hi,

Is there a way to use the alert manager to send an alert to external API,

I mean instead using excage server or slack etc, I will provide an endpoint

like `https://mypullendpoint.host.com` and the alert manager will send the 

alert to this URL ?

Thanks! 

Nina

Hi

Yes you need to define receivers and webhook.

such as:

receivers:
- name: "alerta"
webhook_configs:
- url: 'http://localhost:8080/webhooks/prometheus'
send_resolved: true


please refer these:

Yes - use the webhook receiver.
