Send Alerts to Opsgenie

On this page

Checkly integrates with Opsgenie and can deliver failure, degradation, and recovery events to any Opsgenie team. You can add as many Opsgenie channels as you wish. After setting up the integration, Checkly will:

  1. Create an alert in Opsgenie when a check fails.
  2. Send the most recent result details when a check degrades.
  3. Resolve alerts when a check recovers.

To get started, take the following steps:

  1. First, you will need to create an API integration in Opsgenie.

    Log in to your Opsgenie account, and determine which region you are using. At the moment Opsgenie offers two regions: US and EU.

    💡 If your Opsgenie URL looks something like https://app.eu.opsgenie.com, you are using the EU region.

    Go to the Teams tab and choose a team you want to integrate with Checkly, then navigate to your team’s Integrations tab and click the “Add integration” button. setup checkly opsgenie integration step 1

  2. Select the API integration from the list of integrations available in Opsgenie.

    💡 You can use the REST API query in the search box, to quickly find the API integration.
