StatusCake

The StatusCake Integration 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 if matches a rule setup by one of your teams. If it matches that rule, we’ll alert the team. Learn more about Alert Rules here.
