Opsgenie Integration

The Opsgenie integration allows you to connect your Sentry organization with one or more Opsgenie accounts. Once your accounts have been connected, you'll be able to configure issue and metric alerts in Sentry to be sent to the Opsgenie teams of your choice.

  1. To get started, go to Settings > Integrations > Opsgenie (Integration) and click "Add Installation".

    Install Opsgenie integration

  2. Select your base Opsgenie URL and type in your Opsgenie account name. If you like, you can also add your integration key at this time. After you click 'Submit', you'll be directed to the configuration page for your connected Opsgenie integration.

    Opsgenie installation form

The Opsgenie integration should now be installed. Go to the configuration page to manually add and update integration keys. (Keys have to be associated with a 'Sentry' integration in Opsgenie.) You can create a 'Sentry' integration by going to Integrations > Add integration for your team in Opsgenie.

If you added an integration key during installation, it'll appear on the configuration page with the label 'my-first-key'. You can change this label at any time.

Opsgenie configuration page

You can set up a new alert rule via the Opsgenie integration configuration page by clicking on the Add Alert Rule button in the Project Configuration section, or by going to the Alerts page in Sentry.

To create an issue alert in Sentry, go to the Alerts page and click "Create Alert". After you've decided what you want to be alerted about, you'll be able to choose to "Send an Opsgenie notification" from the "Add action" dropdown. You can then choose your account, team, and priority for the alert.

Opsgenie issue alert rule action

If you'd rather be alerted when a specific metric crosses a threshold, you can set a metric alert by following the same steps as above. Once you've chosen the metric you want to be alerted about, click "Add Action", then select Opsgenie from the notification types dropdown. You can also select a custom priority for the alert, or leave it blank to use the default severity level that Sentry provides for incident statuses ("P1" for critical status and "P2" for warning status)

Alerts that get resolved in Sentry will be automatically acknowledged in Opsgenie.
