Sentry webhook

Issue alerts and metric alerts from Sentry on your phone.

Setup

1. In Sentry open Settings, then Developer Settings, and create a new Internal Integration.
2. In PingLoom open Webhooks, choose New webhook source, pick Sentry, paste the integration's Client Secret, choose the events and create it. Copy the endpoint URL.
3. Paste the PingLoom URL as the Webhook URL of the Sentry integration, turn on Alert Rule Action, and give it Read access to Issue & Event if you want issue alerts.
4. In an Sentry alert rule add the action Send a notification via your integration, then save. Metric alerts use the same integration.
5. Trigger a test from the alert rule. The request appears under Recent requests on the PingLoom source page.

Verification

Sentry signs the raw request body with HMAC-SHA256 and your integration's Client Secret, and sends the hex digest in the Sentry-Hook-Signature header. Sentry documents no signed timestamp, so PingLoom uses the Request-ID header to drop repeats.

Events

You choose which events become alerts when you create the source, and you can change it later on the source page.

Issue alert priority follows the Sentry level: fatal and error are high, warning is normal, anything else is low. Only Sentry links (sentry.io) become the alert link.
