# Notifications
|
|
|
|
Notifications are a way for Clair to inform an endpoint that changes to tracked vulnerabilities have occurred.
|
|
Notifications should contain only the name of a notification.
|
|
Because notification data can require pagination, it is expected that the receiving endpoint calls the Clair API for reading notifications and marking them as read after being notified.
|
|
|
|
## Webhook
|
|
|
|
Webhook is an out-of-the-box notifier that sends the following JSON object via an HTTP POST:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"Notification": {
|
|
"Name": "6e4ad270-4957-4242-b5ad-dad851379573"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Custom Notifiers
|
|
|
|
Clair can also be compiled with custom notifiers by importing them in `main.go`.
|
|
Custom notifiers are any Go package that implements the `Notifier` interface and registers themselves with the `notifier` package.
|
|
Notifiers are registered in [init()] similar to drivers for Go's standard [database/sql] package.
