Sentry webhooks

Issue created, resolved or assigned; error events; alert rule actions; comments.

Events

  • issue.created
  • issue.resolved
  • event_alert.triggered
  • metric_alert.critical

Signature

Header Sentry-Hook-Signature: HMAC-SHA256 of the raw body with the integration's client secret, hex encoded. Sentry-Hook-Resource names the resource.

✓ A bin checks Sentry signatures: add the integration client secret under Signature verification (Sentry).

Check a Sentry signature with the free tool (use the GitHub preset).

Retries

Sentry retries failed deliveries a few times with backoff.

See a retry schedule in the calculator.
