SolarWinds¶

Forward SolarWinds Orion alerts to Robusta from an alert action.

Prerequisites¶

• A Robusta account with API access.

• Your Robusta account_id, found in generated_values.yaml.

• A Robusta API key with Read/Write access to alerts.

• SolarWinds Orion admin access.

Webhook URL¶

https://api.robusta.dev/webhooks?type=alert&origin=solarwinds&account_id=<ACCOUNT_ID>

Configure SolarWinds¶

SolarWinds does not ship a native bearer-token webhook action. Use the Execute an external program alert action to invoke curl (bundled with Windows 10+ and Windows Server 2019+):

curl -sS -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer <ROBUSTA_API_KEY>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{ \"alertName\": \"${N=Alerting;M=AlertName}\", \"node\": \"${N=SwisEntity;M=Caption}\", \"severity\": \"${N=Alerting;M=Severity}\", \"message\": \"${N=Alerting;M=AlertMessage}\" }" "https://api.robusta.dev/webhooks?type=alert&origin=solarwinds&account_id=<ACCOUNT_ID>"

Save the action and attach it to the alerts you want forwarded.

Verify¶

Manually trigger the alert from the Alert Manager UI. The event should appear in Settings → Delivery Log and on the Robusta timeline.
