Post Status

An agent can be configured to post status information to a web service after it has completed a run. This can be used as an alternative to email notifications.

 

An agent posts status information as URL parameters or as JSON formatted content. This gives better flexibility than email notifications, since the web service can easily parse the status information and take action depending on that information.
