AWS Cloudwatch set up WebHook


I am having trouble in defining a webhook on AWS CloudWatch(I am new to this technology). I checked out a lot of forums but I could not find out the right answer. Basically, what I need is a webhook or a similar way for sending an alert from CloudWatch to a web server via http post, every time the alert is generated.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!


Solution

  • Configure CloudWatch to send the alert to an SNS topic. Then have SNS send the message to an HTTP endpoint.
