Integrate Opsgenie with Track-It!
What does Opsgenie offer Track-It! users?
Track-It! sends notifications of new alerts. With Sentry's Integration, Opsgenie acts as a dispatcher for these alerts and determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies via 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 Opsgenie, a workflow is created in Track-It!.
When users acknowledge, unacknowledge etc. an alert in Opsgenie, this action is added as a note to the related workflow in Track-It!.
When users add a note to alerts in Opsgenie, add note info is sent to Track-It!.
