Notification settings

AutoOps can notify you of new events opened or closed through various connectors. You can specify which events you want to be notified about, as well as how and when you want to receive these notifications.

Note

Only Organization owners can configure these settings.

To set up notifications for specific events in AutoOps, you have to:

  1. Add connectors to specify where the notifications will be sent.
  2. Add notification filters to determine which notifications will be sent to each connector and when.

To receive notifications for new events, the first step is to specify where the notifications should be sent. AutoOps provides a selection of built-in connectors to choose from. You can set up multiple connectors of the same type or of different types based on your needs.

To add a connector, follow these steps:

  1. On the Notifications settings page, navigate to the Connector settings tab and click Add connector.
  2. Select a connector type and fill in the required fields. Refer to Configure connectors for specific instructions for each connector.
  3. Click Run to test to send a test notification.
  4. Save your settings.

The following connectors are available with AutoOps. Expand each section for specific configuration instructions.

After adding a connector, add a notification filter to specify which events to receive notifications for and how you want to be notified. You can create an unlimited number of filters, and the same connector can be used across multiple filters.

To add a filter, follow these steps:

  1. On the Notifications settings page, navigate to the Filter settings tab and click Add filter.
  2. Enter a name that best describes the type of notification. This name will appear in other reports and dashboards.
  3. Select the connectors to receive the notification.
  4. Select the deployments for which this filter should trigger notifications.
  5. Use the Delay field to set the period of time you want AutoOps to wait before sending the notification. If all the events listed in this filter are closed by AutoOps in this time, no notification will be sent.
  6. Use the Included Events and Excluded Events fields to select which events should trigger or not trigger this notification.
  7. Save your settings.

From the Notifications report, you can check all the notifications sent. The report lists all the events that were set up in the notification filters and their status.

The Notifications report

The notification can have one of the following statuses:

  • Notification sent
  • Connector not defined
  • Notification muted
  • Sending notification
  • Notification failed to send
  • Event closed before notification sent

The notification status for each event is also shown in the flyout when you select an event on the Deployment or Cluster page.
