Receive Web API Call

Question

I was wondering if there is a possibility to receive a Web API call from (in this case) an external system and consume it in SCOM. I don't want to pull information from the API, just consume it and create an alert when the external system send a call.
Or do you need a custom connector for this?

Hi anonymous user,

I believe you would need to create a custom connector for this, as SCOM has its own service model, which means it doesn't allow creating alerts outside of it and managing those.

Here's a similar thread from the old TechNet forum discussing this similar topic:
Send alerts to SCOM (REST API or another way)
