Alert Integrations & Notification Channels

NorthDuty turns monitoring signals into alerts and delivers them where your team already works. You can route alerts to nine channel types — email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Google Chat, custom webhooks, Telegram, SMS, and WhatsApp — and control which signals fire with threshold-based alert rules.

Route alerts to email, Slack, and webhooks so the right people hear first.

Every signal, routed to the right place

Monitoring only helps if the right people hear about a problem quickly. NorthDuty connects each project to the notification channels your team uses, so health, journey, and visual-change signals reach the inbox, chat channel, or phone that gets seen.

Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Google Chat, and custom webhooks are delivered as an HTTP POST to a per-channel webhook URL, so they fit existing channel and automation setups. Telegram delivers through a bot, and SMS and WhatsApp are delivered via Twilio.

Decide what fires an alert

Alert rules turn monitoring signals into thresholds before anything is sent to a channel.

Alert Rules

Threshold rules for health, journeys, visual diffs, and SSL

Configure alerts for health score, response time, failed user journeys, visual differences, and SSL expiry, then route them to your connected channels.
