Discord

Connect Discord to get notified in real time when something goes down, and when it comes back up.

What Gets Sent

Monocle sends to your Discord channel:

• Monitor Down: an uptime monitor finds your service unreachable or returning errors. Includes the monitor name, URL, and environment.
• Monitor Recovered: the service is back online, with the total downtime duration.
• Endpoint alerts: an alert fires or resolves, with the current value, the threshold, and links to the endpoint and its slowest traces.
• Exception summaries: new and regressed issues of a project, when an exception rule posts to the channel.

Setup

1. In your Discord server, go to Server Settings > Integrations and create a webhook.
2. In Monocle, go to Settings > Integrations > Notification channels and click Add channel.
3. Choose Discord, give the channel a name, paste the webhook URL and hit Send test.
4. Pick the channel where it should be used:
   • Uptime: check Uptime monitors under Use by default, or turn off Default channels in a monitor and pick the channel there.
   • Exceptions: check Exceptions under Use by default, or add a rule in Settings > Projects > your project > Exception alerts.
   • Endpoint alerts: under Notify in each alert.

You enter a webhook URL once. When you replace it, every monitor, alert, and rule that uses the channel follows. See Notification channels.
