Configure Webhooks to Receive Event Notifications in Third-Party Applications
You use webhooks to automate sending event notifications from a source application to a destination application. You can configure webhooks to enable Juniper Mist Routing Assurance to send notifications to third-party applications, such as ServiceNow, when events you have subscribed to are triggered on the managed devices.
To receive webhook notifications in the required format, you need to configure an intermediary that can interact with the sending and receiving applications. The recommended intermediary platform is Make. To process notifications, Make uses a workflow called Scenario, which converts the notifications to the desired format. Each event notification is sent to a URL that is generated for the Scenario in Make. The notification is then converted into a format that the application supports and is then delivered to the application.
For information on Scenario in Make, see Scenario.
To configure webhooks to send notifications:
-
You must have access to the third-party application to view the event notifications.
-
You must be an administrator with the Network Admin role to perform corrective action for the notification received.
