When Prometheus alert rules trigger, your team needs timely notifications to respond. Managed Service for Prometheus can send alert notifications to a DingTalk group through a chatbot. After you create a DingTalk chatbot and link it to a notification policy, alerts that match the policy are automatically sent to the specified DingTalk group.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure that you have:
A DingTalk group created on your DingTalk client to receive alert notifications
A custom chatbot created in that DingTalk group, and the webhook URL of the chatbot. For details, see Obtain the webhook URL of a DingTalk chatbot
