Catchpoint

You can configure a Catchpoint webhook to post alert data to Moogsoft Enterprise when an event occurs in Catchpoint. After you configure the integration, Catchpoint sends alert data to Moogsoft Enterprise.

When you use the integrations UI, you can only configure the visible properties. If you want to implement a more complex Catchpoint integration with custom settings, see Configure the Catchpoint LAM.

See the Catchpoint documentation for details on Catchpoint components.

To configure the Catchpoint integration:
