Webhooks
Webhooks in ThoughtSpot provide a way to automate workflows and integrate with external systems by sending real-time notifications when specific events occur. In ThoughtSpot, webhooks can be used for two primary alerting use cases:
-
KPI alerts
For KPI charts in a Liveboard or Answer, ThoughtSpot allows creating and scheduling alerts. KPI Monitor alerts notify users when a KPI metric meets a threshold condition or periodically as per the schedule configured by the user. To send these alerts and notify external applications when a KPI meets a defined threshold, changes value, or on a scheduled basis, ThoughtSpot provides webhooks. This allows organizations to initiate actions in third-party applications, such as sending notifications to Slack, Microsoft Teams, or custom business systems, or triggering automated workflows such as order placements when inventory levels drop below a set value.
For more information, see Webhooks for KPI monitor alerts. -
Liveboard schedule alerts Beta
Starting with 10.14.0.cl, ThoughtSpot supports using webhooks to send real-time notifications to external applications and communication channels when a Liveboard scheduled job is triggered. This enables you to automate workflows, send custom notifications, or integrate with other systems. To enable this feature, contact ThoughtSpot Support.
