What does the integration offer?

Compass provides a web API for Loggly to create alerts directly in Compass servers. Forward Loggly alerts to Compass to notify users via iOS and Android push notifications, email, SMS, and phone calls, track the alert lifecycle, escalate alerts, etc.

How does the integration work?

When an alert is created in Loggly, an alert is also created in Compass automatically through the integration.

Set up the integration

Loggly is an API-based integration. Setting it up involves the following steps:

  • Add a Loggly integration in Compass

  • Configure the integration in Loggly

Add a Loggly integration

Info

Bidirectional integrations aren’t supported in the Standard plan. All the other integrations are supported at a team level in Standard.

If you're using the Standard plan in Compass, you can add this integration only from your team’s operations page. Adding an integration from your team’s operations page makes your team the owner of the integration. This means Compass only assigns the alerts received through this integration to your team.

To add a Loggly integration in Compass, complete the following steps:

  1. Go to your team’s operations page.

  2. On the left navigation panel, select Integrations and then Add integration.

  3. Run a search and select “Loggly”.

  4. On the next screen, enter aname for the integration.

  5. Optional: Select a team in Assignee team if you want a specific team to receive alerts from the integration.

  6. Select Continue.
    The integration is saved at this point.

  7. Expand the Steps to configure the integration section and copy the API URL.
    You will use this URL while configuring the integration in Loggly later.

  8. Select Turn on integration.
    The rules you create for the integration will work only if you turn on the integration.

Configure the integration in Loggly

To configure the integration of Loggly with Compass, complete the following steps:

  1. In Loggly, go to Alerts > Add New.

  3. Leave Send to an endpoint selected.

  4. Select Add New.

  5. Select "HTTP Endpoint" for Endpoint.

  6. Select "POST" for Method.

  7. Paste the API URL copied previously into URL.

  8. Leave Enable this alert selected and select Submit Alert.
