Chapter 2. Configuring notifications and integrations for Red Hat Lightspeed tasks events
You can configure the notifications service on the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console to send notifications whenever the Red Hat Lightspeed tasks service detects certain events that occur during the start and execution of a task. Use the notifications service as an alternative to continually checking the Activity tab for events related to the status of a task. The notifications service settings are available at Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console > Settings > Notifications.
When configuring events for Red Hat Lightspeed tasks that you want notifications for, it is essential to understand the distinctions between a task, a task execution, and a task job. Also, be sure to know how they work together to perform a specific task in Red Hat Lightspeed.
- Red Hat Lightspeed tasks: a predefined script or playbook that helps you perform a specific task.
- Red Hat Lightspeed tasks execution: an instance of running that script or playbook on one or more systems.
- Red Hat Lightspeed tasks job: the execution of a specific task on a specific system.
For example, you can configure the notifications service to automatically send an email message when a Red Hat Lightspeed task starts, completes, or fails. As another example, you can configure the notifications service to automatically send an email message when a Red Hat Lightspeed task job starts or completes.
In addition to sending email messages, you can configure the notifications service to send event data in other ways:
- Using an authenticated client to query Red Hat Lightspeed APIs for event data
- Using webhooks to send events to third-party applications that accept inbound requests
- Integrating notifications with applications such as Splunk to route tasks events to the application dashboard, or to your preferred messaging application such as Slack or Microsoft Teams.
Configuring the notifications service to inform members of your Red Hat account of tasks events requires three main steps:
- An Organization Administrator creates a User Access group with the Notifications administrator role, and then adds account members to the group.
- A Notifications administrator sets up behavior groups for events in the notifications service. Behavior groups specify the delivery method for each notification. The Notifications administrator selects the event types to make available for the specified group of users. For example, a behavior group can specify whether to send email notifications to all users, or just to Organization Administrators.
- Members on the account who want to receive email notifications about events must set their user preferences so that they receive individual emails for each event.
To view configurable task events, you must be a Notifications administrator.
