I found this in the error logs. I am trying to just create alert actions to add .json alerts to each event I alert on.

So its a python script which uses slack webhook to send the alert to with the crafted .json message.

The `os` module/method can be used to execute filesystem commands.

I would have an alert

1) alert action - slack alert with $ results.
