StatusCake Event Source
The StatusCake Event Source for Signals allows users to create events in FireHydrant from uptime monitors in StatusCake. Anytime that StatusCake sends a webhook event to FireHydrant, we’ll evaluate the event payload to see if it matches a rule set up by one of your teams. Learn more about Alert Rules here.

Field Mappings
The following StatusCake webhook parameters are transposed to FireHydrant's Signals Events Data Model:
StatusCake Parameter | Signal Parameter(s) |
---|---|
URL | idempotency_key body |
Name | summary |
Status | status - Closed on FireHydrant when Up or UP on StatusCake, otherwise Openannotations['Status'] |
CheckRate ContactGroup IP StatusCode | annotations['CheckRate'] annotations['ContactGroup'] annotations['IP'] annotations['StatusCode'] |
Subsequently, the following webhook from StatusCake:
{
"Name": "My Website",
"Status": "UP",
"StatusCode": 200,
"URL": "https://www.example.com",
"IP": "1.2.3.4",
"CheckRate": 300,
"ContactGroup": "12345"
}
...will be transposed to the following Signal in FireHydrant:
{
"idempotency_key": "https://www.example.com",
"summary": "My Website",
"body": "https://www.example.com",
"status": "CLOSED",
"annotations": {
