Create a discard notifier

The discard notifier discards all notifications.

You can’t create discard notifiers from within the Chronosphere Observability Platform interface.

Select from the following methods to create a discard notifier.

Chronoctl
Terraform
API

To create a discard notifier using Chronoctl:

Define the resource definition for your discard notifier:
Chronoctl example
api_version: v1/config kind: Notifier spec: name: NAME slug: SLUG discard: true
Replace the following:
- NAME: A descriptive name, such as Example discard.
- SLUG: A unique identifier, such as example-discard.
Apply the changes:
chronoctl apply -f FILE_NAME.yaml
Replace FILE_NAME with the name of your notifier YAML file.

To create a discard notifier using Terraform:

Create a discard notifier with Terraform by using the chronosphere_blackhole_alert_notifier type followed by a name in a resource declaration:
Terraform example
resource "chronosphere_blackhole_alert_notifier" "discard" { name = "Example discard" }
Run terraform apply to create the notifier resource.
terraform apply

To complete this action with the Chronosphere API, use the CreateNotifier endpoint.Because the Chronosphere API requires authentication, include an API token with your curl request, as shown in the following example. For more details, see Create an API token.

export CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN="TOKEN"
export CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN="INSTANCE.chronosphere.io"

curl -H "API-Token: ${CHRONOSPHERE_API_TOKEN}" \
     -X METHOD "https://${CHRONOSPHERE_DOMAIN}/ENDPOINT_PATH"

Replace the following:

TOKEN: Your API token.
INSTANCE: The subdomain name for your organization’s Observability Platform instance.
METHOD: The HTTP method to use with the request, such as GET or POST.
ENDPOINT_PATH: The specific endpoint you want to access.
