Integrate Opsgenie with Pingometer
What does Opsgenie offer Pingometer users?
Pingometer creates alerts when downtime occurs for a monitor. With Pingometer Integration, Opsgenie acts as a dispatcher for these alerts, determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies them via email, text messages (SMS), phone calls, and iPhone & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed.
Opsgenie has a specific API for Pingometer Integration, Pingometer sends alerts to Opsgenie and Opsgenie handles automatic creation of alerts.
Functionality of the integration
When the status of a monitor is down on Pingometer, an alert is created in Opsgenie automatically through the integration.
When the status of the monitor is back up on Pingometer, the related alert is closed in Opsgenie.
