Grafana Alertmanager

Grafana Alertmanager Integration​

Causely can send root cause alerts directly to your existing Grafana Alertmanager setup, allowing your team to respond quickly with actionable context. This integration enables you to route high-signal alerts into your existing alerting workflows, no additional rules or duplication needed.

Configuration​

If you would like to configure the Grafana Alertmanager integration, you can do so by enabling the executor and specifying your Alertmanager URL and optional authentication in the values.yaml file.

Add the following under the notifications section of your causely-values.yaml:

executor:
  enabled: true

notifications:
  alertmanager:
    enabled: true
    url: url: "https://your-grafana-instance/api/v1/alerts"  # Replace with your actual Grafana alert endpoint (cloud or self-hosted)
    auth: "user:password"
note

Replace the placeholder values with your actual Alertmanager URL and optional credentials.

If you’re using Grafana Cloud, refer to your instance’s alerting endpoint. This integration expects a webhook-compatible URL where Causely can post root cause alerts.

To install the Causely agent with the Alertmanager integration enabled, run:

causely agent install --cluster-name <cluster-name> --values ./causely-values.yaml

Notification Payload Format​

For details on the structure and fields included in Causely webhook alerts, including what will be sent to Alertmanager, refer to the Notification Payload Format page.

It includes a sample payload and field-by-field breakdown to help you parse and route alerts effectively.
