OpsGenie

EventStore Cloud platform is using OpsGenie for its alerting system. Our minimal configuration requires an API key. For simplicity’ sake, we recommend the API key to belong to a responder team.

Those instructions assume you are starting from scratch and don't have a team set up yet. We also assume that you are currently on the landing page after logging in OpsGenie.

Create a team in OpsGenie

Log in to your OpsGenie instance, then complete the following steps to set up a new team. Skip this step if you already have a team.

1. Click on the Teams tab up top.
2. Click on the Add team top left.
3. A popup should show up. Enter your team info like its name and members. Keep in mind that the team will be considered as the responder team in EventStore Cloud.
4. Once you confirm your new team creation, you should be redirected to your new team dashboard page.

Generate the team API key

Follow these steps to generate an API key for the team, which should be alerted when issues happen in Event Store Cloud.

1. Click on the Teams tab up top.
2. Select your team in the team table.
3. By selecting your team, you should be redirected to your team dashboard.
4. Click on Integrations, located in the left sidebar.
5. Click on the Add integration button.
6. In the integration list, click on API then the Add button.
7. By default, the form should be already pre-filled. Make sure that Read Access, Create and Update Access, Delete Access and Enabled are checked.
8. Click on Save Integration at the bottom.
9. You can get your API key that should be located just below the Name property.

Complete the integration

1. In the Event Store Cloud console, select an organization and then a project.
2. Once viewing a project, you should see Integrations under the heading Project in the sidebar to the left. Click it.
3. Click New Integration. Enter a name that will make it easier to find later, and then select Issues or Notifications.
4. Select the OpsGenie sink and put the API Key in the form, then click on the Create integration button.

If all the details were entered correctly, the new integration should be set up. See the example on the screen below.
