    Automation Recipes#

    Any tool that accepts an inbound JSON webhook can subscribe to LemWatch alerts. Paste the catch-hook URL into the Mattermost / Automation webhook field — LemWatch posts a Slack-compatible JSON payload that every major automation tool ingests natively.

    Sample payload (what LemWatch POSTs)#

    {
  "text": "🚨 *CRITICAL alert* — example.com",
  "attachments": [{
    "color": "#dc2626",
    "title": "Site Down",
    "text": "Site example.com is down (HTTP 503)",
    "fields": [
      { "title": "Event", "value": "site_down", "short": true },
      { "title": "Severity", "value": "critical", "short": true }
    ],
    "ts": 1749643696
  }]
}

    Zapier#

  1. New Zap → trigger Webhooks by Zapier → Catch Hook → copy the custom URL.
  2. Paste it into LemWatch (Mattermost / Automation webhook field).
  3. Trigger a test from LemWatch — Zapier auto-detects the JSON.

    4. Make (Integromat)#

  4. New scenario → Webhooks → Custom webhook → Add → copy the address.
  5. Paste into LemWatch.
  6. Click Determine data structure in Make and trigger a test.

    7. n8n#

  7. Add a Webhook node, POST, copy the Production URL.
  8. Paste into LemWatch and activate the workflow.

    9. Pipedream#

  9. New workflow → HTTP / Webhook trigger → copy the endpoint.
  10. Paste into LemWatch.

    11. IFTTT (Webhooks service)#

  11. Connect the Webhooks service and grab your maker key.
  12. Endpoint: https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/{event}/with/key/{your_key}.
  13. Paste into LemWatch.

    14. Need raw HTTP instead?#

    If your destination wants a flat schema ({ site_id, event_type, severity, ... }) instead of the Slack-style payload, use the Generic Webhook channel.
