Step 1: View the Notifications Section in UIlicious

To view the Notifications section, you can open the Monitoring tab in UIlicious studio.

In Monitoring, you can view your complete list of jobs.

Then, click on the Schedule New Job button.

Name your job.

Then, scroll down to the Notifications section.

Note: You can choose When to receive notifications, there are two options available:
Always or Error.

Next, click the toggle next to Notify by Webhook.

Then, open the dropdown menu next to Webhook and select Others.

Step 2: Making a Webhook URL with Integram

Now, that we know where our Webhook URL goes in UIlicious, let's create our Webhook URL in Integram.

First, open Telegram.

Then, click the button in the upper-right-hand corner.

Then, click New Group.

Type in @integram_bot to see the available users to select from.

Then, select the Integram bot.

Feel free to add more users to the group that would like to receive the same notifications.

Then, click Next.

Now, type in the name of your new group.

Then, click the Create button to create your new group.

Once you have created a new group, you will receive options on how to receive notifications from the Integram bot.

Click the Webhook button.

Now, you should see a bot titled Horn.

Click the Start button to receive your webhook.

Copy the Webhook URL provided by the Horn bot.

Step 3: Add the Webhook URL to Your UIlicious Notification Settings

Now, that we have our Webhook URL, let's add it to our UIlicious Notification Settings.

Then, click the blue Schedule button.
