VictorOps Alert Channel

Configure Lacework to forward alerts to specific VictorOps groups using a VictorOps REST endpoint.

Create a REST Endpoint

  1. In VictorOps, navigate to Settings > Alert Behavior > Integrations > REST – Generic
  2. If the REST endpoint integration is not enabled, click the blue Enable button to generate your endpoint destination URL.

Before providing the URL to Lacework, you must replace everything after the final forward slash with the routing key that you want to use for the integration. Alert routing gives you the ability to assign specific types of alerts to specific groups. The final URL must use this form:

https://alert.victorops.com/integrations/...../[routing_key]

For details about creating REST endpoints, see VictorOps: REST Endpoint and VictorOps Routing Keys.

Create a VictorOps Alert Channel from the Lacework Console

Do the following:

  1. Log in to the Lacework Console as a Lacework user with administrative privileges.
  2. Go to Settings > Notifications > Alert channels.
  3. Select + Add new.
  4. Select VictorOps.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Verify that you have created a VictorOps REST endpoint as described in Create a REST Endpoint.
  7. Name the channel.
  8. Add the VictorOps REST endpoint URL.
  9. Click Save.
  10. Click Alert rules and configure your required alert routing details/options by leveraging the alert channel you created.

You should now start to receive Lacework alert notifications in your chosen VictorOps group.
