Create a Webhook Alert Response

The Firewall Management Center supports webhook alert configuration, allowing you to integrate Firewall Management Center alerts with external systems or custom applications that can receive and process webhook payloads.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that your Firewall Management Center has network connectivity to the webhook endpoint.

  • If you plan to use TLS authentication, ensure you have the necessary CA certificate, client certificate, and client key files available for upload.

Procedure

1

Choose Policies > Alerts.

2

From the Create Alert drop-down menu, choose Create Webhook Alert.

3

In the Name field, enter a descriptive name for the webhook alert response.

4

In the URL field, enter the URL of your webhook endpoint.

5

From the TLS type drop-down list, choose the TLS authentication type. You have these options:

  • CLIENT: Choose this option to configure one-way TLS authentication. Upload the CA certificate for the client to validate the authenticity of the server.
  • MUTUAL: Choose this option to configure two-way TLS authentication. Upload the CA certificate, client certificate, and the client certificate key for both the client and the server to authenticate mutually.
  • None: Choose this option to not configure TLS authentication.
6

If you use TLS authentication, specify the credentials required for authentication with the webhook endpoint.

7

(Optional) Click Test Connection to verify connectivity and authentication with the webhook endpoint.
