Webhook Authentication

If want to send notifications via webhook to Splunk, Datadog, or LogicMonitor, how might I configure Databricks to authenticate using the destination platform's bearer token?

Hi @prodrick ,

It looks like webhooks destination supports only basic authentication using username and password. But you can try to paste bearer token to password section. Some webhook endpoints accept Bearer tokens in the password field while leaving username empty or using a placeholder

Thanks. I was unaware of this workaround. I'll have to check with our security team to see if it'll be allowed, but I'm grateful that you shared this nugget of knowledge with me. Cheers!
