When an application deployed on Enterprise Distributed Application Service (EDAS) triggers an alert, you may need the notification to reach your team immediately. By adding a custom chatbot to a DingTalk group, you can route EDAS alert notifications directly to that group or a contact through a webhook URL.
The webhook URL follows this format:
https://oapi.dingtalk.com/robot/send?access_token=<your-access-token>The following steps walk through a 3-step process: create a custom chatbot, configure its security settings, and copy the webhook URL.
