Generic webhook

Send custom JSON alerts into IncidentRelay.

The generic webhook integration is useful for internal tools, scripts and monitoring systems that can send structured JSON payloads.

Payload shape

A generic webhook alert can include title, message, status, severity, external id, labels and source links. IncidentRelay normalizes it into the same alert workflow used by monitoring integrations.

Minimal example

{
  "title": "Database connection errors",
  "severity": "critical",
  "status": "firing",
  "labels": {
    "team": "platform",
    "service": "billing-api",
    "env": "prod"
  }
}

Good use cases

  • Internal deployment checks.
  • Custom SLO burn-rate automation.
  • Legacy monitoring tools that can post JSON.
  • Operational scripts that need on-call escalation.
