Rocket.Chat

Robusta can report issues and events in your Kubernetes cluster to Rocket.Chat.

Prerequisites

Before you begin setting up the Rocket.Chat sink, ensure you have the following information ready:

  • Server URL

  • Personal Access Token

  • User ID

  • Channel name

Rocket.Chat Server Setup

First, you need to set up a Rocket.Chat server. If you haven't done this yet, you can find detailed information on deploying on-prem servers at the following URL: Rocket.Chat Installation Guide.

Or if you prefer using RocketChat's cloud SaaS platform, you can follow the instructions at this URL: Rocket.Chat Cloud Setup.

Generating Personal Access Token and User ID

Follow these steps to generate the required Personal Access Token and User ID:

  1. Log in to your Rocket.Chat server using your valid username and password.

  2. Click on your avatar and select My Account from the menu.

  3. Navigate to Profile > Personal Access Tokens.

  4. Check the Ignore Two Factor Authentication option if enabled.

  5. Fill in the Add new Personal Access Token text field and click the Add button.

  6. Copy the provided Personal Access Token and User ID for later use.

Configuring the Rocket.Chat sink

Add this to your generated_values.yaml

 sinks_config:
 # Rocket.Chat integration params

      name: main_rocketchat_sink
      user_id: <User ID>
      channel: <Rocket.Chat channel>
      token: <Personal Access Token>
