How To Use Webhooks in Upstream Alerts

By Steven | March 20, 2023

Using Webhooks from Upstream Alerts

Sometimes you just need a little more control over your service notifications. That's why we are excited to announce that Upstream Alerts now supports delivering service notifications to your applications via webhooks!

How it works

We will send a post request to a url you specify whenever a service you subscribe to has an outage, incident, or an update that you should be aware of.

  "service": {
    "name": "GitHub"
    "statusPageLink": "https://www.githubstatus.com/"
