Explanation

Databricks SQL Alerts allow you to define a condition on a query result and trigger a notification when that condition is met. To notify a team via a messaging webhook (e.g., Slack, Teams, PagerDuty), you must configure a webhook alert destination and attach it to the Alert. Option A (custom template) only changes the notification format, not the delivery channel. Option B (email) sends email, not a webhook. Options D and E do not support the required webhook delivery. Only option C correctly configures the notification channel as a webhook destination.
