Signals Webhooks Beta, Teams Targeting for Event Sources, Liquid in Status Templates, and more!

Signals Webhooks in Beta

We love that our customers are finding value in Signals and want to continue expanding on custom workflows. So we released Signals Webhooks in beta - building on our existing Webhooks functionality, FireHydrant can now send Webhooks to external destinations on any Signals/Alert action. Find the documentation here.

Liquid in Status Templates

FireHydrant now supports using Liquid templating when configuring Status Templates. Templates with dynamic incident data help reduce the cognitive load for your responders so they can quickly post updates and immediately return to the issue at hand.

Dynatrace Event Source

FireHydrant now supports Dynatrace as an event source for Signals alerts. You can find it in the table on the Event Sources page. Click View on the right-most column of the table to see an example payload and how FireHydrant translates it into an event.
