Integrate Opsgenie with Hosted Graphite
What does Opsgenie offer Hosted Graphite users?
Use Opsgenie’s Hosted Graphite Integration to forward Hosted Graphite alerts to Opsgenie. Opsgenie determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies via email, text messages (SMS), phone calls, iOS & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed.
Functionality of the integration
When an alert is created in Hosted Graphite, an alert is created in Opsgenie.
Add Hosted Graphite Integration in 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 Hosted Graphite and select Add.
Specify who is notified of Hosted Graphite alerts using the Responders field. Autocomplete suggestions are provided as you type.
Copy the API Key.
Select Save Integration.

3. Select Opsgenie option from Notification Type.
4. Enter the name of your notification channel to Name field.
5. Paste the API Key you copied from Opsgenie into Opsgenie API key.
