Configure HipChat Notifications
Configuring HipChat™ notifications allows you to receive notifications in your HipChat rooms when events occur in WHMCS.
Configuring HipChat Notifications
To configure notifications through HipChat:
- Go to Configuration () > System Settings > Notifications.
- Click Configure for HipChat.
- Enter the following settings:
- API Token — The WHMCS HipChat integration requires a HipChat API V2 User Token. This allows WHMCS to communicate with all of your HipChat rooms.If you don’t have an API token, see Creating an API Token in HipChat below.
- API URL — If you are using HipChat Server, enter the URL to the API of your hosted instance. If you use HipChat Cloud, leave this field blank.
- Click Save Changes. WHMCS will attempt to verify the API token you provided.
- If verification fails, you will receive an error message. Check that the API token is entered correctly and has all the required scopes before you try again.
- If verification succeeds, HipChat will become active.
- Create the desired notification rules.For more information, see Notifications.
