Feature request: webhook notifications

Post by hans1 »

Hi,

The program currently supports email notifications. I suggest you add webhook notifications. A webhook is a unique URL that responds to being accessed over HTTP.

Webhooks are easier to set up than SMTP, because they are one field only. They are more secure because they do not require you to store credentials. They are more reliable, because they do not expire when your SMTP password changes, and are not affected by your email provider denying logon or your firewall blocking outbound SMTP.

Webhooks are supported by monitoring services such as healthchecks.io.

Webhooks are already implemented in SyncBackPro.

Thanks

Hello,
thanks for the feature request.

Question: how many agents do you manage? I'm asking, because there are other monitoring options available (Veeam Backup & Replication, VeeamONE, Veeam Service Provider Console)

Best regards,
Hannes

We are also interested in using webhooks for automation with Rewst. We are an MSP managing 100s of servers.

Hi,
I'm also interested in this feature. I have 5 customers with about 20 installations where this feature would help me to track customer events central. If possible the feature should also be implemented for the other operating systems ( my customers are using Windows and Linux).

Is there an update on this feature request?
It would be great if Veeam, preferably Backup and Replication, would also support Webhook in addition to Mail and Syslog.
As an IT service provider, we are currently trying to move away from SMTP mail for customer events and have all events sent to us via webhook HTTPs. For Example our Storage Systems support Webhook, we got Customer events there. With this information it's easy to decide for which events we create a ticket for example.

Our plan is do this service with more products, for example with veeam.
