The Notification Center allows you to configure email, Slack, and webhook notifications for when certain events occur in your Fireblocks workspace.
Learn more about notification categories and events.
Accessing the Notification Center
To access the Notification Center to configure notifications, complete the following steps:
- On the main Console page, select your avatar or your name in the upper-right corner. A context menu opens.
- On the context menu, select Settings. The Settings page opens.
- On the Settings page, select the Notifications tab.
Configuring Email notifications
To configure email notifications, complete the following steps:
-
After accessing the Notification Center, select Email in the Channels column.
- Under Events, you can choose to be notified per new events in each of the specified categories, such as Login, Transaction, Whitelisting, and so on. These notification categories correspond to event types, which are derived from actual events logged in the Audit logs.
- To enable such notification, in the right-side column, toggle each category for which you want to generate a notification. If you do not want to generate notifications for a category, leave its toggle off.
- In the Emails column, enter the email address or addresses to which you want notifications delivered. You can enter different email addresses for each category. To remove an email address, select X on its badge.
Configuring Webhook notifications
Important
Note that these are audit notifications that you can receive via webhook. To work with Fireblocks programmatically, use the Push API webhooks feature.
To configure Webhook notifications, complete the following steps:
-
After accessing the Notification Center, select Webhooks in the Channels column.
Note
If you already have webhook notifications configured, you can also select the three dots to the right of the desired webhook's row, and from the menu select Edit webhook to configure it.
- Select Create webhook on the upper-right side of the screen.
-
In the window which appears, complete the following fields:
- Name: Enter the name you want to give the webhook in the Notification Center.
- Description: Enter a short description of the webhook.
- Category: Specify the categories for which notifications are generated, which correspond to event types derived from actual events logged in the Audit logs.
- URL: Enter the URL address of the webhook.
-
Secret Key: Enter the secret key generated for your webhook request. You can find this in the
x-webhook-secret
header of your request. - Select Create webhook. The webhook is now added to the Notification Center.
Setting Up a Webhook Integration with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) Systems
- Verify that your SIEM platform is capable of webhook integration. Then, within the Notification center, configure a webhook to direct notifications to a specific URL provided by your SIEM, which will act as the receiver for these notifications.
- Set up data parsing rules within your SIEM to accurately interpret the payload delivered by the Fireblocks webhook. This often involves aligning certain payload data fields with the corresponding fields in your SIEM.
- Use a Secret Key to ensure that the data arrives from a Fireblocks platform.
- Test the integration to guarantee that the SIEM system correctly receives and processes its data from Fireblocks Platform.
Configuring Slack notifications
To configure Slack notifications, complete the following steps:
-
After accessing the Notification Center, select Slack in the Channels column.
- In the Enable column on the right-side, toggle each category for which you want to generate a notification. Each such category corresponds to event types derived from actual events logged in the Audit logs. If you do not want to generate notifications for a category, leave its toggle off.
- In the Slack channel column, use the drop-down list to select the channels to which you want to send notifications. You can also type the name of a channel to filter the list. To remove a channel, select X on its badge.
Notes:
- You can only select public channels.
- Slack limits their message sending rate to one message per second, therefore, when you need a higher sending rate, you are advised to use Webhook.
- We now have a rate limit for Slack notifications, so that if a message is stuck in our queue for more than 10 minutes - it is dismissed from the queue, and is not sent to Slack.
- When you add a slack integration, we fetch a maximum to 10k channels.
