Enterprise Distributed Application Service:DingTalk chatbots

Last Updated:Dec 14, 2023

After you create a DingTalk chatbot for the alert management feature in Enterprise Distributed Application Service (EDAS), you can specify a DingTalk group to receive alerts in a notification policy. When the dispatch rule of the notification policy is triggered, the system automatically sends an alert notification to the DingTalk group that you specified. After an alert notification is received in the DingTalk group, you can manage the alert in the DingTalk group. This topic describes how to create and manage a DingTalk chatbot.

Prerequisites

A DingTalk group is created on your DingTalk client to receive alert notifications.

Create a DingTalk chatbot in the EDAS console

  1. Create a custom chatbot in the DingTalk group that you created on your DingTalk client and obtain the webhook URL of the chatbot. For more information, see Obtain the webhook URL of a DingTalk chatbot.

  2. Log on to the EDAS console.

  3. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Application Management > Applications. In the top navigation bar, select a region. In the upper part of the Applications page, select a microservices namespace from the Microservices Namespace drop-down list. Then, click the name of the application that you want to manage.

  4. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Alert Management > Contact.

  5. On the Notification Objects page, click the DingTalk/Lark/WeCom tab.

  6. On the DingTalk/Lark/WeCom tab, click DingTalk.

  7. In the Create DingTalk Chatbot dialog box, configure the following parameters and click OK.

    Important

    To receive alert notifications in the DingTalk group, you must set the Notification method parameter to DingTalk in the notification policy. For more information, see Create and manage a notification policy.
