FIFO Queue Type Example

Create an AWS SQS webhook with Queue Type = FIFO, for example:

Create a new rule and open the Webhooks tab.

Select [AWS-SQS] test from the Endpoint drop-down.

Enable the OPEN, REPEAT, and CANCEL triggers.

Customize the alert messages using placeholders as necessary, for example:

  • OPEN
{
  "status": "${status}",
  "entity": "${entity}",
  "rule": "${rule}",
  "tags": "${tags}",
  "message": "The rule is open"
}
  • REPEAT
{
  "status": "${status}",
  "entity": "${entity}",
  "rule": "${rule}",
  "tags": "${tags}",
  "repeatCount": "${repeat_count}",
  "message": "The rule is still open"
}
  • CANCEL
{
  "status": "${status}",
  "entity": "${entity}",
  "rule": "${rule}",
  "tags": "${tags}",
  "repeatCount": "${repeat_count}",
  "message": "The rule is cancel"
}

  • Click Save to save the rule.

  • The rule creates new windows when new commands are received by the database.

It can take a few seconds for the first commands to arrive and to trigger the notifications. Refresh the Alerts > Open Alerts page to verify that an alert is open for your rule.
