Hyperping
This document will help you integrate Hyperping with Squadcast.
Hyperping is an uptime monitoring platform for websites, APIs and public status pages.
Route detailed alerts from Hyperping to the right users in Squadcast.
How to integrate Hyperping with Squadcast
In Squadcast: Using Hyperping as an Alert Source
(1) From the navigation bar on the left, select Services. Pick the applicable Team from the Team-picker on the top. Next, click on Alert Sources for the applicable Service
(2) Search for Hyperping from the Alert Source drop-down and copy the Webhook URL
For an Alert Source to turn active (indicated by a green dot - Receiving alerts against the name of the Alert Source in the drop-down), you can either generate a test alert 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 in the last 30 days.
In Hyperping: Set up a Webhook for Squadcast
(1) Click on Project and navigate to Project settings
(2) Paste the previously copied Squadcast Webhook URL in the URL field under Webhook section
Information:
You can test the newly configured webhook by clicking on Down test. This will trigger a test alert in Squadcast. Clicking on Up test may or may not send out the correspoding resolve signal to Squadcast for auto-resolution of the newly triggered incident.
However, if you see that a test alert is triggered in Squadcast when you click on Down test, you can be rest assured that the integration will work as expected.
Note:
You can configure webhooks in Hyperping across different Projects as well.
That is it, you are now good to go!
In Hyperping, whenever an event is generated with down: true, an incident will be created for it in Squadcast. When an event is generated with down: false, the corresponding incident will automatically get resolved in Squadcast as well.
