Get phone and SMS alerts fromIBM NS1 Connect
IBM NS1 Connect raises the alarm — Spike makes sure a human hears it. Every IBM NS1 Connect alert becomes an incident with on-call schedules, escalations, and alerts on phone, SMS, Slack, email, WhatsApp, and Teams.
Set up with AI
I use IBM NS1 Connect for monitoring and Spike for on-call and incident management. Walk me through connecting them: create a IBM NS1 Connect integration in Spike, copy its webhook URL, and add that webhook to IBM NS1 Connect alert settings. Then help me send a test alert to confirm incidents show up in Spike.
What is IBM NS1 Connect?
IBM NS1 Connect keeps watch over your systems and raises an alert the moment something goes wrong — a failed check, an error spike, a service that stops responding.
Connected to Spike, those alerts become incidents: the right on-call person gets a phone call and SMS within seconds, similar incidents are grouped to cut the noise, and everything is tracked until it is resolved.
How to set up IBM NS1 Connect alerts
Every Spike integration is a unique webhook URL. Paste it into IBM NS1 Connect and alerts start flowing — no agents, no code.
Step 1: Create a IBM NS1 Connect integration in Spike
In your Spike dashboard, open Integrations and choose IBM NS1 Connect. Spike generates a unique webhook URL for this integration — copy it.
Step 2: Add the webhook in IBM NS1 Connect
Open the alert or notification settings in IBM NS1 Connect, add a webhook endpoint, and paste your Spike webhook URL.
Step 3: Send a test alert
Trigger a test from IBM NS1 Connect. The alert lands in Spike as an incident and your on-call team is alerted immediately.
That's it — IBM NS1 Connect alerts now page whoever is on call.
