Destinations for OpenClaw Alerts

Once OpenClaw policies are triggering, route them to destinations so the right people or systems see them.

Common choices:

• Slack for team-facing alert triage
• Discord for community or ops rooms
• email for low-volume workflows
• webhook destination for custom incident or automation pipelines
• Telegram for lightweight mobile delivery

Current baseline support is:

• supported: webhook, email, slack, discord, telegram
• not part of the v1 supported destination baseline: sms

Validation rules

• Slack requires a valid Slack destination URL
• Discord requires a valid Discord destination URL and a path containing /webhooks/
• Telegram requires credentials.bot_token and credentials.chat_id
• Email destinations use the url field as the destination email address
• Generic webhook destinations require an absolute url

Recommended testing flow:

1. create the destination
2. send a test notification and capture the returned alert_id
3. inspect GET /v1.0/alerts/:alertID/deliveries?kind=test using that alert_id
4. trigger a real alert and inspect the default delivery history view

Test deliveries are hidden from the default delivery history view, so use kind=test immediately after destination setup.

Exact test lookup example

TEST_ALERT_ID=$(curl -s -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CHIRPIER_API_KEY" \
  https://api.chirpier.co/v1.0/destinations/$DESTINATION_ID/test | jq -r '.alert_id')
 
curl -G https://api.chirpier.co/v1.0/alerts/$TEST_ALERT_ID/deliveries \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CHIRPIER_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "kind=test"

const test = await client.testDestination(DESTINATION_ID);
const deliveries = await client.getAlertDeliveries(test.alert_id, { kind: "test" });

test = client.test_destination(DESTINATION_ID)
deliveries = client.get_alert_deliveries(test["alert_id"], kind="test")

test, err := client.TestDestination(ctx, DESTINATION_ID)
deliveries, err := client.GetAlertDeliveries(ctx, test.AlertID, 0, 0, "test")

Delivery history supports:

• kind=alert
• kind=test
• kind=all
