Webhooks (Slack & Teams)
Integrate Keeper Webhook events into Slack, Microsoft Teams and other cloud services.

Webhooks are user-defined HTTP requests that are triggered by an application and pushed into other applications.
Popular uses of Webhooks are the following:
- Sending realtime notifications to Slack, Microsoft Teams or other messaging platforms
- Integrating Keeper events into your custom software, hosted in the Cloud
- Developing integrations into Keeper using 3rd party platforms such as IFTTT
The Keeper Admin Console (version 15.3.0+) supports the ability to push custom Webhook events.
When sending a Webhook, you can substitute fields with one of the below variables.
Name | Description |
#alert_name | Title of the event as appears in the Admin Console |
#description | |
#timestamp | Time which the event occurred |
#remote_address | External IP address of the user generating the event |
#username | User who generated the alert or could be empty depending on the event |
#json | Raw JSON event data (useful for debugging and inspecting fields) |
Depending on the type of event, there are other variable substitutions available.
Name | Description |
#to_username | For sharing events, the destination user |
#from_username | For sharing events, the source user |
#record_uid | For Record events, the Record identifier |
#shared_folder_uid | For Shared Folder events, the folder identifier |
#folder_uid | For Folder-specific events, the folder identifier |
#team_uid | For Team events, the Team identifier |
#role_id | For Role events, the Role ID |
#node | For Node events, the Node ID |
#enforcement | For Role Policy changes, the enforcement name |
#seats | For MSP events, the number of seats |
#seats_added | For MSP events, the number of seats added |
#seats_removed | For MSP events, the number of seats removed |
You can also include hyperlinks for convenience into various areas of the Keeper platform. A few examples:
Keeper supports Deep Linking into the Web Vault for a particular Record UID. Example:
https://keepersecurity.com/vault#detail/XXXXXX
- replace XXXXXX with the Record UID as it appears in the Keeper record, or substitute #record_uid
- replace .com with .eu or .com.au if you are hosted in a different data center.
