Manage Notification Recipients

You can take the following actions with notification recipients:

New Notification Recipient

When a new customer account is created, the system creates a new notification recipient with a name and email address that matches the address entered during registration.

You can create your own recipient in the notification recipient list by clicking the New Recipient button and selecting one of the channels for sending notifications. Each recipient is assigned exactly one communication channel; to receive notifications on multiple channels, create a new recipient for each channel.

After selecting the channel, fill in the following information:

  • Name. You can name the recipient as you like, we recommend a name that you can easily search for or filter.
  • Type of Events. Select ​​whether you want to report only about slow services (can be set for each check; more information in the OnLine – Check Options guide), only about errors, or both.
  • Send from. If the system detects an error once, it may be a measurement error or other false positive. We recommend sending notifications from the 2nd error onward (default), or increasing the tolerance even more.
  • Repeat every. As long as the error persists, the system can send an alert every X-th test, where X is the number you set here. The default setting is 0 – with this setting, the system will only send a message at the first occurrence of a persistent error. If the error disappears, the system resets the counter.
  • Report recovery. Per impostazione predefinita, il sistema invia una notifica quando l’errore è stato risolto (stato OK).
  • Notify during maintenance. Per impostazione predefinita, il sistema non invia notifiche quando imposti un’interruzione programmata per il servizio.
  • Default recipient for new checks. The system automatically assigns the recipient to new checks. The number of default recipients is limited by account variant.
  • Email or Webhook of the service you want to send notifications to.

To pause a recipient, click the pause button at the top of the notification recipient’s detail.

To resume sending notifications to a suspended recipient, click the enable button at the top of the notification recipient’s detail.

Eliminando un destinatario, lo rimuovi definitivamente dal sistema e liberi spazio per crearne un altro.

Delete a recipient by clicking the delete button at the top of the notification recipient’s detail.


FAQ

Does the service have a default recipient?

Yes, after creating an account, the system creates a recipient (channel: email) with the corresponding data. This recipient is, however, not the default recipient for new checks by default.

Can I send notifications to Discord?

The Discord API is not compatible with WEDOS OnLine’s JSON format. You can only connect it through another service which converts the Wedos OnLine JSON file into a supported format and sends it to Discord.
