  8. In the AWS Account Id field, enter the ID of the AWS account that you want to send Observability Cloud alert notifications to.

Step 3: Add an Amazon EventBridge integration as a detector alert recipient in Observability Cloud đź”—

To add an Amazon EventBridge integration as a detector alert recipient in Observability Cloud:

  1. Create or edit a detector that you want to configure to send alert notifications using your Amazon EventBridge integration.

    For more information about working with detectors, see Create detectors to trigger alerts and Subscribe to alerts using the Detector menu.

  2. In the Alert recipients step, click Add Recipient.

  3. Select Amazon EventBridge and then select the name of the Amazon EventBridge integration you want to use to send alert notifications. This is the integration name you created in Step 1: Create an Amazon EventBridge integration in Observability Cloud.

  4. Activate and save the detector.

Observability Cloud will send an alert notification to Amazon EventBridge when an alert is triggered by the detector and when the alert clears.
