Amazon CloudWatch

Parny supports direct integration with CloudWatch alerts. CloudWatch is a network and system monitoring tool that can create alarms to detect and prevent potential problems. This documentation explains how to redirect alarms created in CloudWatch to a webhook using Parny.

Parny Settings

2. Navigate to the "Services" section of your organization.

3. Click on the "New Services" option in the upper right corner.

CloudWatch Configuration

In this section, we will guide you through "Create an SNS Topic".

Create an SNS Topic

To integrate CloudWatch alerts into Parny, a "Topic" must be created in the SNS (Simple Notification Service) service via the AWS Console.

1. You can create a new topic from the screen in the image below (the "Topics" tab of the SNS service). The created topic must be of "Standard" type.

2. After the relevant SNS Topic is created, a "Subcscription" must be created for it.

3. The "HTTPS" protocol should be selected for the subscription as in the example given above, and the Webhook URL (token) from the service created through the Parny portal should be given as the endpoint.

4. After the “Topic” and “Subscription” processes are completed, the topic can be added to desired notifications in CloudWatch alerts.

Notice

Topic, "Subscription Confirmation" can be done manually via the interface. Besides, Parny CloudWatch API is customized to automatically send the required request for approval of the relevant topic. Detailed information for the communication of CloudWatch and SNS services and the connection of the SNS service to HTTP/S endpoints can be accessed from the links below.
