Notifications via custom Webhook (Telegram)

OpenSearch
1

Hello everyone,

Using the version 2.12.2 of OpenSearch, I’m trying to build some alerts to monitor my routers.
I wanted to send to notification via a telegram bot using a custom webhook. I’m able to send a static message if the alert trigger but I don’t see how to personalize the message with, for example, the address of the router where the alert triggered.
The problem is the same using slack webhook, I don’t know how to send “interesting” data with my message.

When building the actions of the alert, in the notification part, I can notice the message part:

Monitor {{ctx.monitor.name}} just entered alert status. Please investigate the issue.
  - Trigger: {{ctx.trigger.name}}
  - Severity: {{ctx.trigger.severity}}
  - Period start: {{ctx.periodStart}}
  - Period end: {{ctx.periodEnd}}

But I don’t get how this message is supposed to be transmit via my custom telegram webhook…

There’s how I’ve configured my channel:

Channel type: Custom webhook
Method: POST
Define endpoints by: Webhook URL
Webhook URL: https://api.telegram.org/bot1415818198:.........Y2mUjXl706_0qK3o/sendMessage?chat_id=-4.......772&text=An%20interface%20have%20been%20changed

The webhook header is by default on application/json

A workaround would be to create a rule for each router and build personalized message for each, but this is way too heavy…

Any helps, ideas would be very appreciate!

Regards

Hello, you need to specify “text” in Message
{
“text”:" Monitor {{ctx.monitor.name}} just entered alert status. Please investigate the issue.

  • Trigger: {{ctx.trigger.name}}
  • Severity: {{ctx.trigger.severity}}
  • Period start: {{ctx.periodStart}}
  • Period end: {{ctx.periodEnd}}"
    }

And the Webhook URL: https://api.telegram.org/bot1415818198:.........Y2mUjXl706_0qK3o/sendMessage?chat_id=-4.......772
