See your Splunk Search alerts in Zulip!
First, create the stream you'd like to use for Splunk notifications,
and subscribe all interested parties to this stream. We recommend the
stream name splunk
, although you may choose another stream
if you prefer.
Next, in the Splunk search app, execute the search you'd like to alert on and then save it as an alert:
Name and configure your search in the "Settings" and "Trigger Conditions" sections of the "Save As Alert" dialog box. In the "Trigger Actions" section, click "Add Actions" and select "Webhook" to add a webhook action. Put the Zulip Splunk webhook URL and your API key in the "URL" field, along with your desired stream and (optional) topic name. If you do not specify a stream, your messages will use the default stream `splunk`. If you do not specify a topic, the name of the search is used (truncated to fit if needed.)
Example:
{{ external_api_uri_subdomain }}/v1/external/splunk?api_key=abcde&stream=splunk&topic=alerts
When you are done, it should look like this:
Click Save to save the alert. You can create as many searches with alert actions as you like, with whatever stream and topic you choose. Update your webhook URL as appropriate for each one, and make sure the stream exists.
Congratulations! You're done!
When your search triggers an
alert, you'll see a notification like this:
