Destinations

A Destination is a webhook URL for Slack, Google Chat, or Microsoft Teams, a general-purpose webhook URL, or an email address.

Destinations are managed in the organization view of the VIP Dashboard. Once created, a Destination is available to be configured as a recipient for Notifications for an organization or Notifications for one of the organization’s applications.

Note

An updated format (v1) for the request body of webhook URLs was released on 2 February 2024. Destinations for webhook URLs that display a “Legacy” label were configured prior to that date and will send requests with the legacy request body (v0) until they are updated to v1.

Any remaining Destinations using the v0 legacy format will be automatically updated to v1 on 2 May 2024.
