    Article Summary

    NOTE
    This Enforcement Action was formerly named Web Server Information - Send to Webhook.

    HTTP Server - Send to Webhook serializes the entities retrieved from the saved query supplied as a trigger (or entities selected in the asset table) as JSON. This JSON data will be sent to a configured webhook. When used with a saved query as a trigger, only the fields configured in the saved query are added to the JSON.

    See Creating Enforcement Sets to learn more about adding Enforcement Actions to Enforcement Sets.

    General Settings

    • Add description - Click to add a description of the Enforcement Set. It is recommended to describe what the Enforcement Set does.
    • Run action on assets matching following query (required) - Select an asset category and a query. The Enforcement Action will be run on the assets that match the query parameters.
    • Action name (required) - The name of the Main action. A default value is added by Axonius. You can change the name according to your needs.

      • Use {$BODY} to include the entities found in the saved query supplied as a trigger (or entities that have been selected in the asset table) data.
      • Use {$BODY_ESCAPED} instead of {$BODY} if you want to escape JSON characters so that the JSON is sent as a string instead of an object.
    • Connection timeout (seconds) (required, default: 10 seconds) - Define the number of seconds before the attempt to connect to the webhook is considered to be timed out. As a result, the enforcement action execution will fail.
