Steps Deploy Falcosidekick via its Helm chart and configure the `config.yaml` with target outputs such as Slack, webhook, or Elasticsearch Set Falco's `json_output: true` and `json_include_output_property: true` in `falco.yaml` so alerts are machine-readable Point Falco's `http_output` to the Falcosidekick service URL (default port 2801) Configure output-specific sections in the Falcosidekick values file with credentials or endpoints for each sink Deploy Falcosidekick-UI alongside if a web dashboard is needed; it connects to the same Falcosidekick instance Verify delivery by triggering a test event with `falco --list` or a known-bad container and checking the downstream sink Known gotchas Falcosidekick drops alerts if the upstream Falco HTTP output queue fills; tune `http_output.nb_threads` for high-event environments Each output type has independent retry and timeout settings; misconfigured credentials cause silent drops unless `debug: true` is enabled Priority filtering in Falcosidekick (`minimumpriority`) overrides Falco rule priority — ensure the threshold is not set too high in production
