Dear all,

I would like to kindly ask You for some idea how to add an alert when sidecar status is failing/unknown to receive notification. I read following article:

Create an alert in graylog when sidecar status is unknown or failing

Hi All, Graylog version 3.1.3 Graylog sidecar version 1.0.2 We have deployed graylog sidecar in our end user machine and the metricbeat collector is configured to that sidecar in graylog web interface. But when the sidecar is status unknown or failing we want graylog to send alert notification to an email or http endpoint. The below screenshot shows that the sidecar is in Unknown state, [image] and I was checking in the graylog api browser where I can see the below API’s for manage sideca…

…and wonder if some solution can be used for collectors:

-winlogbeat
-filebeat

Winlogbeat is running on Win Server 2019
Graylog version is 4.3.7

I am happy for any response in advance. Regards, Jan.
