Integration Advanced Settings

Integration advanced settings consist of many different alert scenarios. These scenarios are called "Actions"; and they specify how and when alerts can be created, closed, acknowledged. etc. There are default actions provided by Opsgenie Jira Service Management for every integration; but you can customize them and add as many actions of your own as you like. You can, for example, have three Create Alert ‘Create Alert’ actions; which means the webhook data that comes to Opsgenie Jira Service Management will be evaluated against these three scenarios in order; and if one of them has a match a new alert will be created.

...

There is a specific order to which type of actions will be evaluated first. For example, by design Ignore ‘Ignore’ actions are evaluated first and Add Note ‘Add Note’ actions are evaluated last. This means the incoming data will be evaluated against Ignore ‘Ignore’ actions; and if one of them has a match then Add Note ‘Add Note’ actions and also any other action will not be evaluated at all; and only that Ignore action will be processed.

...

An ignore action means that the webhook data, if it matches the action's filter, will be ignored completely; and will not be evaluated by any other action. Ignore actions are the first actions to be processed when a webhook data comes to OpsgenieJira Service Management.

From the integration advanced settings page, under Actions on the right, click the plus sign next to "Ignore". This will open a new ignore action. You'll see that an ignore action has one tab, Filter. If a webhook data matches the condition set of this filter, the ignore action will be processed, thus, the data will be ignored. For more information on Filter, see Action Filters.

...

A Create Alert action will create a new Opsgenie Jira Service Management alert if the condition set of its filter matches the data. You can not only specify the conditions to when an alert will be created, but you can also fully customize what kinds of information it will have and where, its formatting etc.

...

If the data that's sent to Opsgenie Jira Service Management matches the condition set of this filter, this Create Alert action will be processed to create an Opsgenie Jira Service Management alert. For more information on Filter, see Action Filters.

...

Alert fields constitute the data an Opsgenie Jira Service Management alert is composed of. The fields that you can configure are explained below. You can write text, and also drag and use the dynamic fields from the right. For more information on draggable fields, see Dynamic Fields.

...

  • Message: Alert text up to 130 characters.

  • Alias: The alias is the unique identifier for "open" alerts. There can only be one "open" alert with the same alias in OpsgenieJira Service Management.

  • Recipients: The names of the users, groups, escalations and schedules that should be used to determine who should be notified. Note that for a Create Alert action, Message and Recipients fields are mandatory.

  • Entity: The name of the entity that the alert is related to. For example, name of the application, server etc.

  • Source: The source of the alert.

  • Tags: Labels to the alert for easier identification and categorization of alerts. Use commas in between for multiple tags.

  • Actions: List of actions a recipient can execute to respond to an alert. Use commas in between for multiple actions.

  • Description: Detailed description of the alert; anything that may not have fit in the Message field can be entered here.

  • Extra Properties: Additional alert properties. Enter the name of the property in the first field and the value in the second.

  • User: Owner of the note that will be added to the alert.

  • Note: Note to be added to the alert.

...

A Close Alert action will close an existing Opsgenie Jira Service Management alert based on its alias; if the data matches the condition set of the action's Filter. For more information on Filter, see Action Filters

...

Alias is mandatory in the alert fields of a Close Alert action. When a Close Alert action is processed, Opsgenie Jira Service Management looks for an "open" alert to close, whose alias is equal to the Alias specified in the Close Alert action.

...

Alias is mandatory in the alert fields of an Acknowledge Alert action. When an Acknowledge Alert action is processed, Opsgenie Jira Service Management looks for an "open" alert to ack, with alias equal to the Alias specified in the Acknowledge Alert action.

...

Add Note action is used to add a comment to an existing alert according to the data Opsgenie Jira Service Management API receives. When an Add Note action is processed, Opsgenie Jira Service Management looks for an alert to add note to, with alias equal to the Alias specified in the Add Note action.
