Webhook

The webhook notifier sends a JSON POST to any HTTP endpoint: PagerDuty, n8n, your own server. For Discord, use the Discord notifier instead, which sends messages Discord can display.

[notifiers.my-hook]
type = "webhook"
url  = "${WEBHOOK_URL}"

[notifiers.my-hook.headers]
Authorization = "Bearer ${WEBHOOK_TOKEN}"

Fields

Key	Required	What it does
url	yes	The endpoint. Keep it out of the file; see Storing the secret.
headers	no	Extra HTTP headers sent with every request, like an auth token. Values can use ${...} too.
template_path	no	A Go template file that replaces the built-in JSON body.

Webhook notifiers don’t accept a my-hook:<target> override.

What the body looks like

Each event is one POST with Content-Type: application/json. The keys are stable, so you can parse them safely:

{
    "kind": "run.failed",
    "severity": "error",
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T02:30:45Z",
    "task": "backup-postgres",
    "title": "backup-postgres failed",
    "message": "Exited with code 1 after 3m 4s.",
    "trigger": "Scheduled run",
    "run": {
        "id": "01JXYZ...",
        "exit_code": 1,
        "triggered_by": "cron",
        "url": "https://runwisp.example.com/tasks/backup-postgres/01JXYZ...",
        "duration": "3m 4s"
    },
    "output_tail": "Error: connection refused\ndial tcp ...",
    "reason": "exit 1",
    "source": "runwisp (bright-falcon)"
}

run, output_tail, and reason appear only when they apply. Inside run, url needs external_url, and duration appears only for runs that have one.

Changing the body

Point template_path at your own Go template. Start from the built-in webhook.tmpl.json. It gets the whole event and the same helpers as the Slack template.

What’s rejected

• A missing or empty url, or one that isn’t http:// or https://.
• An empty key in headers.
