Create the webhook

Follow these steps to configure a webhook:

1. On the Webhooks page, click Add Webhook. The Add Webhook page appears.
2. Enter a unique, alphanumeric, user-friendly Name for identifying this webhook.
3. Click the Status toggle to Active.
4. From the Method dropdown menu, select POST.
5. For the webhook URL, enter https://<DATADOG_LOG_COLLECTOR_URL>/api/v2/logs. Be sure to replace <DATADOG_LOG_COLLECTOR_URL> with your Datadog organization location. For example, for the US5 region, enter: https://http-intake.logs.us5.datadoghq.com
   
   

   ⚠️

   The webhook URL must adhere to the following requirements:

   • Uses the HTTPS protocol
   • Does not specify any custom ports

6. In the Body Template field, paste the following JSON body for the webhook payload. Replace LOGS_TAGS with a comma-separated list of tags you want to associate with your logs. For example env:staging,version:5.1.
   JSON

   [
    {
      "ddsource": "apono",
      "ddtags": "<LOGS_TAGS>",
      "hostname": "apono",
      "message": "{ \"event_type\": \"{{ event_type }}\", \"event_time\": \"{{ event_time }}\", \"id\": \"{{ data.id }}\", \"friendly_id\": \"{{ data.friendly_id }}\", \"requester_id\": \"{{ data.requester.id }}\", \"requester_name\": \"{{ data.requester.name }}\", \"requester_email\": \"{{ data.requester.email }}\", \"justification\": \"{{ data.justification }}\", \"creation_date\": \"{{ data.creation_date }}\", \"access_flow_id\": \"{{ data.access_flow.id }}\", \"access_flow_name\": \"{{ data.access_flow.name }}\", \"access_bundle_id\": \"{{ data.access_bundle.id }}\", \"access_bundle_name\": \"{{ data.access_bundle.id }}\", \"access_groups_integration_name\": \"{{ data.access_groups.[0].integration.name }}\", \"access_groups_integration_type\": \"{{ data.access_groups.[0].integration.type }}\"}",
      "alert_type": "info",

   💡

   Click View event's payload schema to reveal the payload schema and available data fields. You can also refer to the Webhook Payload Schema Reference to read the descriptions of each data field.

   Key	Value
   DD-API-KEY	<API KEY>

   • RequestGranted
   • RequestExpired

9. Under Filters, define one or several filter from the listed dropdown menus.
10. Click Test to generate a test event to trigger your webhook. A Test successful or Test failed response status will appear at the bottom of the page.

    💡

    For more information about the test, click View Invocation Data. A panel opens revealing the request, response, and other relevant details.
