Microsoft Teams Notifications

Sysdig Monitor supports sending an alert notification to Microsoft teams. Microsoft Teams has different types of integrations for third-party applications, of which Sysdig supports Incoming Webhooks.

About Incoming Webhooks

Incoming Webhooks are a type of Connector in Teams that provide a simple way for an external app to share content in team channels. They are often used as tracking and notification tools. Microsoft Teams provides a unique URL to which you can send a JSON payload with the message that you want to POST, typically in a card format. Cards are UI containers that contain content and actions related to a single topic and are a way to present message data in a consistent way.

You will need to enter the URL that you copied from the Connector. Sysdig will format a message by using a custom card template and send it to the channel. The message will show up as a new notification in the Microsoft application.

Prerequisites

  • Have the destination URL handy. You can copy it from the Connectors > Incoming Webhook window on the Microsoft Teams UI. For more information, see Add an incoming webhook to a Teams channel.

  • Webhooks via HTTPS work only if a signed or valid certificate is in use.
