I’m trying to post some messages to our Cisco Webex Team using the webhooks notification channel. When I’m sending a test (or a proper notification) I’m getting an error in the log stating that body and markdown can’t both be empty in the same request
t=2019-04-30T12:49:20+0000 lvl=dbug msg="Webhook failed" logger=notifications statuscode="400 Bad Request" body="{\"message\":\"Both text and markdown cannot be empty in the same request.\",\"errors\":[{\"description\":\"Both text and markdown cannot be empty in the same request.\"}],\"trackingId\":\"ROUTER_5CC8444F-88BA-01BB-0057-D52711BA0057\"}"

t=2019-04-30T12:49:20+0000 lvl=eror msg="failed to send notification" logger=alerting.notifier uid=7JJsxQzZz error="Webhook response status 400 Bad Request"
Is there some location where I can define what is being send in a notification?
There is also a feature request for sending a custom json body but the Grafana team is not planning to implement it in the near future and no-one from the community has taken it on either:
So your options are:
fork Grafana and use the PR code
create a wrapper around your webex endpoint (a simple Node app or similar) that translates the webhook json into the format webex expects.
wait until backend plugin support for alert notifiers is implemented. Probably will be done in the next 2-3 months.
