Summary

As a customer asked about using New Relic Insights to analyze Alerts data, it turned out that this is possible and can be set up with ease. To get started, you need an Insert Key for the Insights API, your New Relic account ID, and create a Webhook notification channel in Alerts. You customize the JSON payload by adding an eventType field and specify the custom Insights event name. The new Webhook channel will post incident details to Insights whenever a condition is violated on an alert policy, allowing you to analyze and slice the data as needed.
