SigNoz’s webhook notification channel sends Prometheus Alertmanager JSON (status, alerts, fingerprint, labels, annotations, startsAt, endsAt) to the URL you enter. The Flashduty Prometheus integration accepts this format, so no separate SigNoz integration is needed: create a Prometheus integration in Flashduty and paste its push URL into SigNoz.

In Flashduty On-call


Get an integration push URL in either of the two ways below. Choose the Prometheus integration type in both, not SigNoz.

Use a dedicated integration

  1. In the Flashduty console, go to Channels and open a channel
  2. Go to Settings → Integrations → Dedicated integrations and click Add an integration
  3. Select Prometheus and click Save
  4. Open the generated integration card and copy the Push URL, in the form https://api.flashcat.cloud/event/push/alert/prometheus?integration_key=<integration key>

Use a shared integration

  1. In the Flashduty console, go to Integration Center → Alert Events
  2. Select Prometheus and enter an integration name
  3. Configure the default route and select a channel; you can add more rules under Routes after creation
  4. Click Save and copy the generated Push URL

Configure in SigNoz


  1. In SigNoz, go to Settings → Notification Channels (also reachable from the Notification Channels tab on the Alerts page) and click New Channel
  2. Enter a channel name, select Webhook as the type, and enter the full push URL copied above as the endpoint URL, including ?integration_key=...
  3. Keep Send resolved alerts on (it is on by default); otherwise Flashduty receives no recovery notifications
  4. Save, then select the channel in the threshold row (send to) of your SigNoz alert rules

Field mapping


SigNoz groups notifications by rule (ruleId); one notification can carry several alerts, and Flashduty handles each one separately (up to 100 per request). A firing rule normally arrives within a minute.

Recovery and deduplication


  • When SigNoz sends a notification with status set to resolved, Flashduty closes the alert with the same fingerprint.
  • In current SigNoz rules the severity label is taken from the threshold row name (for example a threshold named critical or warning), which is also written to the threshold.name label. If you use a value that is not built in, such as error, configure a custom severity mapping on the Prometheus integration; otherwise it is treated as Warning.
  • The resolved notification arrives several minutes after the rule returns to normal (observed: about 30 seconds for firing, 6 to 10 minutes for resolved). This is expected.
  • The channel’s Test button sends a firing test alert titled Test Alert (<channel name>) with severity critical. It opens a Critical alert in Flashduty and is never followed by a resolved notification, so close that alert manually.

Troubleshooting


  • Flashduty returns Invalid parameters: the push URL is incomplete and lacks integration_key, or the integration type is not Prometheus
  • Alerts do not recover: confirm Send resolved alerts is on for the SigNoz channel and that the resolved notification’s fingerprint matches the trigger
  • Resolved notifications arrive late: SigNoz sends the resolved notification several minutes after the rule returns to normal, which is its default behavior
