n8n alerts

Send kwatch incident alerts to n8n. Use the interactive manager for installation and credential setup. This page explains the provider fields and shows a minimal configuration fragment.

Before you start, have these values ready:

  • url — Workflow webhook URL.

Credentials, tokens, keys, passwords, and webhook URLs must be mounted from a Kubernetes Secret. Use an exact ${file:/absolute/path} reference for every field marked Secret.
