I’m not sure if anyone else would find this useful or not, but this quick change to make Hipchat throw up a notification flag.  If this is a horrible hack, I apologize in advance.

[observium]# more ./includes/alerting/hipchat.inc.php

$color = ($message_tags['ALERT_STATE'] == "RECOVER" ? "green" : "red");

// Default URL if not set

if ($endpoint['url'] == "") { $endpoint['url'] = 'https://api.hipchat.com'; }

$message = '<a href="'.$message_tags['ALERT_URL'].'">'.$message_tags['TITLE'].'</a>';

$message .= '<br />';

$message .= str_replace("             ", "", str_replace("\n", " ", $message_tags['METRICS']));

// JSON data

$data_string = json_encode(array(

  "from" => $endpoint['from'],

"notify" => 'true',                                                                                                                                               //Added this statement

  "color" => $color,

  "message_format" => 'html',

  "message" => $message));
