Managing Event Destinations

Send notifications from your Paragon project into your logging, analytics, and APM services.

Event Destinations allow you to configure notifications for events that occur in your Paragon project.

For example, if you'd like to add another email to be notified by email when a workflow fails, you can add an Email Destination. If you prefer notifications via Slack, you can configure a Webhook Destination to a Slack incoming webhook.

You can find your project's Event Destinations by navigating to the global Settings tab in the left sidebar and selecting Monitoring under your Project Settings.

From this Monitoring page, you can take any of the following actions for any Event Destination:

  • Update the configuration of the Event Destination (such as changing the email address or webhook URL)

  • Disable the Event Destination, which temporarily pauses notifications sent to this destination

  • Delete the Event Destination

Email Destinations

By default, your project will include an Email Destination for Workflow Failure events, using the email address of the user that created the project.

You can set up additional Email Destinations by following these steps:

  1. From the Settings > Monitoring page, click the Add Destination button at the top right.

  2. In the Type field, select Email.

  3. In the To field, enter the desired email to be notified.

  4. Optionally, send a test email with the Test Email button at the bottom left.

  5. Click Save to create and enable the new destination.

Webhook Destinations

Webhook Destinations are available for Paragon customers on paid plans. To learn more, contact our team at sales@useparagon.com.

Webhook Destinations allow you to receive event notifications from your Paragon project via HTTP requests. Webhook Destinations will receive a POST request when the event occurs, with configurable request headers and body contents.

Setup from template

If you use Slack, Datadog, New Relic, or Sentry, you can configure a Webhook Destination by clicking "Select Template" under Request Payload and following the guide to configure below:

Send events as messages in Slack

Send events as logs in Datadog

Send events as logs in New Relic

Send events as issues in Sentry

Setup manually

You can set up a Webhook Destination by following these steps:

  1. From the Settings > Monitoring page, click the Add Destination button at the top right.

  2. In the Type field, select Webhook (HTTP Request).

  3. In the URL field, enter the desired URL to receive the event payload.

  4. Optionally, additional request headers can be specified by expanding "Show more request options".

  5. Send a test request to your Webhook Destination by clicking Test Webhook button at the bottom left.

  6. Click Save to create and enable the new destination.

Note: Your Webhook Destination may be automatically disabled if your webhook responds with too many non-2xx status codes for consecutive events.

Supported Events

At this time, Workflow Failure events can be sent from your Paragon project.

We are working on adding support for more events. Have a request for other events you'd like to send from your Paragon project? Let us know.
