- Define the alert rule based on your monitoring needs.
- Define the alert details with any name and description.

- For all the names, fill in a value of “victorops” to help define the action.
- For the action, select webhook
- Paste the Service Endpoint you copied to your clipboard from VictorOps for URI.
- Enable the common alert schema should be toggled to YES.
