I am attempting to create an alert that would consume an azure webhook that sends out test results and I would like to alert based off the webhooks sent value. I have been unable to find an alert that would work for this.

  1. Is there an alert type that would work to consume an incoming webhook?
  2. How would I alert off the value the webhook sends?

Hi there,

Thank you for the post. If you want to trigger an alert from PRTG, you first need to create a Sensor which monitors the required value. Did you already add a Sensor?

Hey Moritz, Apologies I meant to say sensor, I would like to know the sensor type I would use that would work to consume an incoming webhook?

If I understand you correctly than PRTG receives data via HTTP triggered by another instance? In this case, I would recommend to use the HTTP Push Data Advanced Sensor: https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/http_push_data_advanced_sensor
