On-call integration

Uptimera + Opsgenie

Forward Uptimera incidents to Opsgenie via its Alert API. Opsgenie's schedules, escalations, and routing rules take over from there — same model as the PagerDuty integration, for teams that standardized on the Atlassian on-call stack. Recoveries close the Opsgenie alert automatically.

Availability: Available on the Business plan — delivered through a webhook alert channel, which is a Business-plan feature. Free and Pro plans use email and Slack.

Setup

  1. 1

    Create an Opsgenie API integration

    In Opsgenie, go to Teams → your team → Integrations → "Add integration" → "API", enable it, and copy the API key.

  2. 2

    Add an Opsgenie webhook channel in Uptimera

    In Uptimera, open Alerts → Add Channel → Webhook, then set the Format to "Opsgenie". Paste the API key, choose your region (US or EU), and set a default priority (P3 is a reasonable starting point).

  3. 3

    Attach it to your production monitors

    Add the Opsgenie channel to the monitors that should page. Staging and side-project monitors can stay on Slack or email — pages should be reserved for things that actually need a human.

  4. 4

    Test the routing

    Use "Test" on the channel card. Verify the alert lands in Opsgenie at the priority you expected and routes through your on-call schedule.

What teams do with this

Atlassian-shop on-call

If you already use Jira, Confluence, and Statuspage, Opsgenie is the natural on-call layer. Uptimera plugs in without you having to re-pick a vendor.

Multi-team routing

Create separate Opsgenie channels for separate teams' API keys and attach each to the right monitors — the API monitor pages the backend team, the marketing site pages the web team.

Auto-close on recovery

Uptimera closes the Opsgenie alert (matched by the incident alias) when the service recovers, so on-call doesn't have to manually clear stale alerts.

Common questions

Can I set a different priority per monitor?

The priority is set on the channel and applies to every monitor attached to it. To page at different priorities, create multiple Opsgenie channels — one per priority — and attach the right one to each monitor.

Does it support Opsgenie's responder routing?

Uptimera creates the alert (with an alias for dedup) and closes it on recovery; it doesn't set responders on the alert itself. Configure responder and escalation routing on the Opsgenie side using the integration's team and routing rules.

Is Opsgenie being deprecated by Atlassian?

Yes — Atlassian has announced Opsgenie's end-of-life, with full end of support on April 5, 2027 and migration to Jira Service Management. The integration works today; if you're picking an on-call tool fresh, factor the sunset in.
