Get started with Opsgenie as an admin
Start building your teams, integrate your tools and create on-call schedules.
Integrate Opsgenie with Incoming Amazon SNS
Amazon SNS makes it simple and cost-effective to push notifications to Apple, Google, Fire OS, and Windows devices, as well as Android devices in China with Baidu Cloud Push.
What does Opsgenie offer to Amazon SNS users?
Opsgenie acts as a dispatcher for Amazon SNS notifications, determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies via them using email, text messages (SMS), phone calls and iPhone & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed.
Functionality of the integration
When an alert is created in SNS, an alert is created in Opsgenie automatically through the integration.
Add Incoming Amazon SNS Integration in Opsgenie
Go to Settings → Integrations. Search for Amazon SNS and select Add.
Under the Free and Essentials plans, the tabs under the Team dashboard are limited to Main, Integrations, Members, and Activity Stream.
2. Specify who is notified of SNS alerts using the Responders field. Auto-complete suggestions are provided as you type.
Did you know that you can also add this integration from your team dashboard?
If you want your team to be the owner of this integration, add it from your team dashboard. Opsgenie will assign the alerts received through this integration to your team only.
To do that;
Go to Teams,
Find your team and select it to go to your team dashboard,
From your team navigation, select Integrations,
Select Add integration.
3. Copy the integration URL which includes Opsgenie’s endpoint as well as the API key.
4. Click Save Integration.
Set up Subscription on Amazon SNS
2. Add an HTTPS subscription to the topic with Opsgenie’s API endpoint using the URL provided from Opsgenie Integration.
Upon successfully configuring SNS subscription to Opsgenie a confirmation alert is created in Opsgenie:
Specify alias, entity, tags, recipients, teams, and custom actions of the alert using MessageAttributes.
