Set up notifications for new Health Log Analytics anomaly alerts in either a Slack or Microsoft Teams channel.

Before you begin

Starting with Version 33.0.27 - August 2024, Health Log Analytics uses the Microsoft Teams Graph spoke application to send notifications for new anomaly alerts. The new application replaces the Microsoft Teams spoke plugin, which will be deprecated. If you're using an HLA version earlier than 33.0.27, follow the setup procedure below. Otherwise, refer to Set up Health Log Analytics alert notifications in a Microsoft Teams channel.
Note: If you upgrade from an earlier version to Version 33.0.27 - August 2024 or later, redo the setup using the procedure in Set up Health Log Analytics alert notifications in a Microsoft Teams channel.

Procedure

  1. Create a Webhook URL for a channel in Slack or Microsoft Teams.

  2. Map the Webhook URL for the channel to the service instance associated with the alert.
    1. Navigate to Health Log Analytics Administration > Webhook Notification.
    2. Select New.

      Webhook The Webhook URL that you created for the channel.
      Active Select to activate the Webhook.
      Configuration item The service instance associated with the alert.
