Sensu Go
Get alerts from Sensu Go into Squadcast
Follow the steps below to configure a service so as to push related alert data from Sensu Go onto Squadcast.
Squadcast will then process this information to create incidents for this service as per your preferences.
- 1.Navigate to Services -> Service Overview -> select or search for your Service. Expand the accordion -> In the Alert Sources section, click Add.
2. Select Sensu Go. Copy the displayed Webhook URL to configure it within Sensu Go. Finish by clicking Add Alert Source -> Done.
Important:
When an alert source turns Active, it’ll show up under Configured Alert Sources, you can either generate a test alert from the integration or wait for a real-time alert to be generated by the Alert Source. An Alert Source is active if there is a recorded incident via that Alert Source for the Service.
If you're using sensuctl 5.13 with Sensu Backend 5.13 or later, you can use the following command to add the asset:
sensuctl asset add sensu/sensu-squadcast-handler
Installation from source
Download the latest version of the sensu-squadcast-handler from releases, or create an executable script by cloning the sensu-squadcast-handler repository. From the local path of the sensu-squadcast-handler repository run the following command:
Important
For the command mentioned below to work, you would need Go Programming Language installed beforehand.
go build -o /usr/local/bin/sensu-squadcast-handler
Create a
squadcast-handler.yaml file like the following :-type: Handler
api_version: core/v2
metadata:
name: squadcast
namespace: default
spec:
command: sensu-squadcast-handler
env_vars:
- SENSU_SQUADCAST_APIURL= <Squadcast Alert Source Url>
runtime_assets:
- SquadcastHub/sensu-squadcast-handler
filters:
- is_incident
timeout: 10
type: pipe
Make sure to replace
<Squadcast Alert Source Url> with the webhook url you copied from Squadcast.Then run the following command :-
sensuctl create -f squadcast-handler.yaml
While creating checks for your client systems make sure to add
squadcast as a handler. An example check using the squadcast handler is shown below :-api_version: core/v2
type: CheckConfig
metadata:
namespace: default
name: health-check
spec:
command: check-http -u http://localhost:8080/health
subscriptions:
- test
publish: true
interval: 10
handlers:
- squadcast
Now whenever an event is triggered in Sensu Go , an incident will be created automatically in Squadcast. Also when an event is resolved in Sensu Go the corresponding incident gets auto-resolved in Squadcast.
