Webhooks

Send incidents anywhere

Pingstack sends a JSON payload every time an incident changes, so you can pass it on to n8n, your own tools or anything else that takes a webhook. For PagerDuty and Jira Service Management, use the built-in PagerDuty and Jira Service Management integrations instead.

Sample payload

Pingstack POSTs this JSON to your webhook URL when a check alerts, and again when it recovers with resolved_at filled in.

{
  "alert": "Human-readable alert text",
  "check": {
    "name": "Public website",
    "status": "down"
  },
  "incident": {
    "started_at": "2026-01-01T12:00:00Z",
    "resolved_at": null,
    "cause": "Human-readable cause"
  }
}

Return any 20x response to confirm delivery. See the webhook docs for every field and how to handle repeats.
