The keen-eyed observer will notice this factor in all the webhooks we've run so far. While cloudtamer.io does delete the resources created by the Cloud Rule, there might be some resources created by the webhooks that also need addressing. Webhooks aren’t only run when applying a Cloud Rule though. Need to trigger that Lambda job created in the Cloud Rule after the Cloud Rule is applied? With the access keys being sent, you can again get access to the account(s) and start triggering your jobs there. We already know at this point: the pre-rule setup ran, the Cloud Rule actions are applied, and we just need to finish up with the post-rule webhook. Because this webhook also has the "post" EventState, we know for sure it's the one that is run after the Cloud Rule has finished applying. After the Cloud Rule has finished applying, the post-rule webhook will run and the webhook endpoint will be hit. Note that it includes all the fields mentioned: Post-Rule Webhooks Here’s what the testing endpoint shows us when it receives the webhook call. So, whatever prep work we need to do we'll do it now. By default, they're off, but if you're planning on getting into the account and doing some setup work first, they're pretty necessary! Because we know that the EventState is "pre-rule" and that the ActionType (more on this later) is "add", we know for sure that this is happening before a Cloud Rule has started applying. The access keys are an option you can select when creating your webhook. This information includes account and project names along with AWS access keys. When you create a pre-rule webhook, attach it to a Cloud Rule, and then attach to a project, the information passed to the receiving application is specific to each account on the project. The examples below reference an internal testing tool that outputs the content of the webhook post, so we know exactly what sort of information we're given and what we can do with it. Let's look at what information is passed to these webhooks and the best practices for using webhooks in cloudtamer.io. A webhook trigger type of ad hoc occurs when you manually trigger the webhook from the UI. Once all actions in a Cloud Rule have executed completely, the post-rule webhook will trigger. The pre-rule webhook will always trigger before any other actions on a Cloud Rule are applied. When it comes to webhooks, cloudtamer.io has three webhook trigger types: pre-rule, post-rule, and ad hoc.
Rather than having the kids ask “are we there yet?” every few minutes (polling method), the kids can sit quietly and wait for the parent to say “we’ve arrived” to signal permission (webhook method) to get out of the car.
DOES THE OTHER USER KNOW YOU ARE USING CALLNOTE FULL
Imagine you are a parent on a road trip with a car full of kids who are waiting for permission to get out.
We built webhooks functionality in to act as a notification system between cloudtamer.io and any external applications you want to communicate with. In many applications, you have to build infrastructure that constantly polls the application to determine when data has changed and then trigger actions accordingly. We touched on this a bit in Automate Infrastructure with CloudFormation and Webhooks, and we'll go a little deeper here. But, what about automation resources outside of your cloud, like JIRA tickets, Slack notifications, and maybe your Raspberry Pi?Ĭloudtamer.io webhooks are a great way to interact with resources outside of your cloud.
When it comes to governing resources in your cloud, cloudtamer.io can automate a lot of tasks for you. A webhook is one of the tools we use to integrate with different types of infrastructure.
