Integrate Opsgenie with Microsoft Azure AutoScale
Overview
What does the integration offer?
The Azure Autoscale integration sends Azure alerts to Opsgenie API with detailed information. Opsgenie acts as a dispatcher for the alerts generated by Azure Autoscale. Opsgeniedetermines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules and escalations and notifies via email, text messages (SMS), phone calls, and push notifications.
How does the integration work?
When an alert is created in Azure Autoscale, an alert is automatically created in Opsgenie through the integration.
Set up the integration
Azure Autoscale is an API-based integration. Setting it up involves the following steps:
Add an Azure Autoscale integration in Opsgenie
Configure the integration in Azure Autoscale

Select Integrations on the left navigation and then select Add integration.
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. Follow the rest of the steps in this section to set up the integration.
