Alert properties
All alerts send the same list of properties across all alert types, they relate to both:
- The alert that you set on Sonar
- The event that triggered your alert
Below are the properties passed in the json:
key | type | options |
event_id | int | Open |
timestamp | timestamptz | Open |
type | string | Limited to 4 |
alert_name | string | Open |
event_verbose | string | Open |
domain | string | Open |
The event_verbose has been added to allow further flexibility on the way you use the alert.
As opposed to event properties or company properties, alert properties are not sent in a nested json but rather sent directly in the first level of the json object as shown below:
{
"event_id": 458325, // Not nested
"timestamp": "2020-04-23T12:25:32.209Z", // Not nested
"type": "technology_removed", // Not nested
"alert_name": "Hotjar deleted", // Not nested
"event_verbose": "Wine Central removed Hotjar", // Not nested
"domain": "winecentral.co.nz", // Not nested
"event_properties": {
"technology_name": "Hotjar",
"technology_domain": "https://www.hotjar.com/",
"technology_category": "Analytics"
},
"company_properties": {
"company_name": "Wine Central",
"alexa_rank": null,
"country": "New Zealand",
"location": "Albany, Auckland, New Zealand",
"industry": "Food & Beverages",
"employees_range": "1-10",
"social_linkedin_url": "linkedin.com/company/wine-central",
"social_facebook_url": "/4winecentral",
"social_twitter_url": null,
"year_founded": 2013
}
}
Below are all the all the possible values that could be returned for alert properties with limited options.
