Sending LogDNA Alerts to Discord
So turns out I broke Sentry → Discord last week... oops. I have it hooked up to LogDNA to log events and errors, but I, uh, don't actively check it. After I discovered the issue, I spent a little bit of time setting up a dashboard for it that sends a webhook alert to my Discord channel.
The process was actually surprisingly easy. If you go to Settings -> Alerts under your organization, you can create a custom Webhook that looks like this:
My custom payload:
{
"username": "LogDNA",
"avatar_url": "https://assets-global.website-files.com/603024253162e837e0c31b6f/603024253162e8e6eac31e49_LogDNA%20webclip.png",
"embeds": [
{
"title": "{{name}} Alert Triggered",
"description": "{{line}}\n\n```{{query}}```",
"url": "{{url}}",
"color": 16711680,
"footer": {
"icon_url": "https://assets-global.website-files.com/603024253162e837e0c31b6f/603024253162e8e6eac31e49_LogDNA%20webclip.png",
"text": "LogDNA Alert"
},
"fields": [
{
"name": "Level",
"value": "{{level}}",
"inline": true
},
{
"name": "Matches",
"value": "{{matches}}",
"inline": true
},
{
"name": "App",
"value": "{{app}}",
"inline": true
},
{
"name": "Host",
"value": "{{host}}",
"inline": true
},
{
"name": "Tag",
"value": "{{tag}}",
"inline": true
}
]
}
]
}You might want to change the parameters before triggering (on every presence is aggressive - my site doesn't get much traffic), but otherwise just plug a new Discord Webhook URL into the field and go! I made a new view that filters out any non-error log messages and then attached the new alert to it. When executed, it looks like this:
