Lampwick alerts in Microsoft Teams

Send Lampwick alerts and new or reopened issues to a Microsoft Teams channel through a Workflows webhook. Team owners set it up in a minute.

Updated View as Markdown

An alert channel posts a team's alerts, and its new and reopened issues, to a Microsoft Teams channel. Push notifications and e-mail keep going out as well.

What you get

  • Down and Up again for uptime monitors, SSL and domain expiry, DNS records changed, Broken links, and Missed, Failed or Slow scheduled tasks.
  • New and reopened Issues, with the exception class; turn on Include exception messages in issue notifications for the message too.
  • What happened, the reason and a link to the dashboard, never a URL's query string.
  • For all projects of a team, or for one project.

Set it up

  1. In Microsoft Teams, open Workflows and create a workflow from the template "Post to a channel when a webhook request is received". Pick the channel and copy the https:// URL it gives you.
  2. In Lampwick, click Alert channels in the sidebar.
  3. Under Add a channel, pick Microsoft Teams as the Kind, give it a Name and paste the Webhook URL.
  4. Under Alerts of, pick All projects of a team or one project, and click Add channel.
  5. On the channel's page, click Send test message.

Only team owners add channels; members see them. The URL is stored encrypted and never shown again, only its host.

Ask your agent

When an alert lands in Teams, paste it into an agent that is connected to Lampwick:

Lampwick just alerted in Teams: "SSL certificate expires in 7 days" for shop.example.com. Check that monitor's certificate details in Lampwick and tell me which certificate to renew and where it is served.

Next step

The alerts docs cover the hourly limits, retries and the Deliveries log of each channel.
