Integrate Opsgenie with Amazon Route 53 Health Check
What does Opsgenie Opsgenie offer Amazon Route 53 Health Check users?
Use Opsgenie Amazon Route 53 Health Check Integration to forward Amazon Route 53 Health Check alerts to Opsgenie. Opsgenie determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies via email, text messages (SMS), phone calls and iOS & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed.
Functionality of the integration
When an alert is created in Amazon Route 53 Health Check, an alert is created in Opsgenie automatically through the integration.
Add Amazon Route 53 Health Check Integration to Opsgenie
You can add this integration from your team dashboard
If you're using Opsgenie's Free or Essentials plan, or if you’re using Opsgenie with Jira Service Management's Standard plan, you can only add this integration from your team dashboard as the Integrations page under Settings is not available in your plan.
Adding the integration from your team dashboard will make your team the owner of the integration. This means Opsgenie will assign the alerts received through this integration to your team only.
To do that,
Go to your team’s dashboard from Teams,
Select Integrations, and select Add integration.
Follow the rest of the steps to complete the integration.
Go to Settings > Integrations. Search for Amazon Route 53 Health Check and select Add.
Specify who is notified of Amazon Route 53 Health Check alerts using the Responders field. Auto-complete suggestions are provided as you type.
Select Save Integration.
5. Add an HTTPS subscription to the topic with the Opsgenie API endpoint by using the URL provided from the Opsgenie Integration.
