Use of custom actions for HTTP based integrations is no longer supported. Please look at HTTP Request Templates on how HTTP based integrations can be done. For sample HTTP templates, please check this article.
Use Case
VictorOps is an on-call management + incident notification platform. The VictorOps alerting extension enables AppDynamics to post AppDynamics events as custom alerts to VictopOps. The payload of the alert has a link to AppDynamics for a thorough diagnosis of the event.
Prerequisites
Steps
<action> <type>victorops-alert</type> <!-- For Linux/Unix *.sh --> <executable>victorops-alert.sh</executable> <!-- For windows *.bat --> <!--<executable>victorops-alert.bat</executable>--> </action>
If you don't have custom.xml already, create one with the below xml content
<custom-actions> <action> <type>victorops-alert</type> <!-- For Linux/Unix *.sh --> <executable>victorops-alert.sh</executable> <!-- For windows *.bat --> <!--<executable>victorops-alert.bat</executable>--> </action> </custom-actions>
Uncomment the appropriate executable tag based on windows or linux/unix machine.
4. Update the config.yaml file in <CONTROLLER_HOME_DIR>/custom/actions/victorops-alert/conf/ directory with the Organization Key, Routing Key. You can also configure the level of details sent to VictorOps.
Note : Please make sure to not use tab (\t) while editing yaml files. You may want to validate the yaml file using a yaml validator http://yamllint.com/
#VictorOps Org Key voOrganizationKey: "" #VictorOps Routing Key voRoutingKey: "" #scheme used (http/https) protocol: "https" #VictorOps host voAlertHost: "alert.victorops.com" #VictorOps url path voAlertUrlPath: "/integrations/generic/20131114/alert" #http timeouts connectTimeout: 10000 socketTimeout: 10000 #control level of details in VO alert showDetails: false
6. Installing Custom Actions:
