Azure - Metric Alerts Integration Guide
Microsoft Azure is an open, flexible, enterprise-grade cloud computing platform. Integrate AlertOps’ alert management platform with Azure to receive and respond to critical email alerts. AlertOps ensures that alerts received from Azure always reach the correct, available team member by utilizing escalation policies and on-call schedules.
Configuration
From the main menu, click on Integrations and then select Inbound Integrations from the sub menu.
Select API tab
Select the 'ADD API INTEGRATION' button.
You should now be on the API Integration Detail page. Select Azure –Metric Alerts from the pre-built Integration Templates.
Enter a name for the integration. Select an escalation rule to determine the integration's escalation policy. And, enter the names of recipient group(s) and recipient user(s). Click 'SAVE.' Then, click 'COPY URL' to copy the URL endpoint to be used in the Azure configuration.

**NOTE** You may send any fields that you want to AlertOps, however, at a minimum you must include the following:
data.context.resourceGroupName
data.context.resourceType
data.context.resourceName
data.status
data.context.name
Refer to the Azure Webhook actions for log alert rules for instructions as to how to configure the payload.
Alert Triggering Information
AlertOps will automatically create an incident when a new alert is received from Azure with an IncidentStatus status of “ACTIVATED.”
If an alert with status “ACTIVATED” matches an existing Open Alert, AlertOps will recognize the new alert as a duplicate and ignore the alert. The alert will be recorded in the Inbound Messages table as “Mapped Appended.”
AlertOps will automatically close the same incident when an alert with an IncidentStatus status “RESOLVED” or "DEACTIVATED" is received.
You can link back to Azure alerts from within AlertOps. You can configure multiple mapping rules for Azure.
