Kore.ai provides integration for a built-in Rollbar Bot that you can use to display message notifications and execute tasks directly from the Kore.ai application. To use the Rollbar Bot, you just need to add the Bot to your Kore.ai account, and then configure the settings for the Bot, such as authentication to access Rollbar, and the notification messages that you want. This topic describes the Rollbar built-in Bot for Kore.ai. For more information about other Kore.ai Bots, see Adding Bots.

About the Kore.ai Bot for Rollbar

DIYRollbarLogoRollbar is a web-based error monitoring service that you can use to send alert messages about exceptions or deployments.

Integration Type Webhook – Connect to this Bot using a webhook integration where the web application pushes message notifications in near real time.
Category Monitoring & Analytics – This Bot is available in the Kore.ai application in the Monitoring & Analytics category.

Configuring Rollbar 

To configure a Rollbar webhook for Kore.ai, you must have a Rollbar account with administrator access as well as API access to configure a webhook. If you don’t, you’ll need to contact the Rollbar system administrator for your company. For more information, see Basic Integration in the Rollbar documentation.
To get started configuring the webhook in Rollbar, you’ll need two things:

  1. The Kore.ai webhook URL provided when you set up an alert in your Kore.ai account for each alert that you want to enable in Rollbar.
  2. A valid Username and Password for an account with Rollbar API access.

The webhook URL is account-specific and cannot be transferred to any other account. This means that if you configure a Rollbar webhook using a test account, you will have to recreate the alert and get a new webhook URL to configure in Rollbar. The following URL is an example webhook URL.
https://app.kore.com/hooks/c6089802f36250c179dcb1aa29afd24c
