You can send notifications to destinations such as Slack channels or Webhook integrations. These resources are part of the Search Analytics > Alerts user interface area. After you create a destination, you can create one or more monitors to specify conditions to watch for, and which will trigger notifications to a destination when activated.

For more information about creating destinations, see Alert Destinations.

Destinations require user_name/password authentication.

When you define destination resources in your Terraform files, you must specify a username/password login pair because API key authentication is not supported for destinations. If you specify only an API key and secret combination, the chaossearch_destination resource fails and displays the error:
Error: Failed to authenticate => API Keys used with incompatible resource

Example Usage

The structure of a destination resource for a Slack channel follows:

resource "chaossearch_destination" "dest" {  
  name = "tf-provider-destination"  
  type = "slack"  
  slack {  
    url = "<http://mycompany.slack.com/archives/ABCDE12345>"  
  }  
}

Resource restrictions

The slack and custom_webhook configurations cannot both be declared in the same resource block.

The structure of a destination resource for a custom Webhook defined by a URL follows:

resource "chaossearch_destination" "dest_custom" {  
  name = "tf-provider-destination-custom"  
  type = "custom_webhook"  
  custom_webhook {  
    url = "<http://test.com>"  
  }  
}

The structure of a destination resource for a custom Webhook defined by custom attributes follows:

resource "chaossearch_destination" "dest_custom_host" {  
  name = "tf-provider-destination-custom-host"  
  type = "custom_webhook"  
  custom_webhook {  
    scheme = "HTTPS"  
    host = "test.com"  
    path = "/api/test"  
    port = "8080"  
    method = "POST"  
    query_params = jsonencode({  
      "test": "value"  
    })  
    header_params = jsonencode({  
      "Content-Type": "application/json"  
    })  
  }  
}

Custom webhook notes

When using a custom_webhook defined by custom attributes, ignore the url value and specify the required attributes in the host, path, port, scheme and related attribute-specific fields.
