Robot channels help you manage your enterprise's push notification channels and simplify communication. Quick BI lets you use DingTalk robots to push messages and send alert information through multiple channels. You can create a DingTalk robot channel and reference it multiple times when you configure metric alerts. This makes adding robot channels more efficient. This topic describes how to create a DingTalk robot channel.
Prerequisites
You have added a DingTalk robot to the target DingTalk group.
Background information
When you configure metric alerts and set the Alert Method to DingTalk Group, you must configure the Robot Webhook and Key. Configuring the same robot for multiple metrics individually is time-consuming. To simplify this process, Quick BI provides enterprise robot channels. You can add a DingTalk robot channel and then simply select it when configuring metric alerts to send notifications to the corresponding DingTalk group.
