Integrate Opsgenie with Blue Matador
What does Opsgenie offer Blue Matador users?
Use Opsgenie Blue Matador Integration to forward Blue Matador alerts to Opsgenie. Opsgenie determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– using 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 or warning is created in Blue Matador, an alert is created in Opsgenie automatically through the integration.
Add Blue Matador Integration in Opsgenie
