Webhooks Input Plugin

This service plugin provides an HTTP server and register for multiple webhook listeners.

Introduced in: Telegraf v1.0.0 Tags: applications, web OS support: all

Service Input

This plugin is a service input. Normal plugins gather metrics determined by the interval setting. Service plugins start a service to listen and wait for metrics or events to occur. Service plugins have two key differences from normal plugins:

  1. The global or plugin specific interval setting may not apply
  2. The CLI options of --test, --test-wait, and --once may not produce output for this plugin

Global configuration options

Plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings for tasks such as modifying metrics, tags, and fields, creating aliases, and configuring plugin ordering. See CONFIGURATION.md for more details.
