Now Available: Dynamic Notifications

PagerDuty has launched Dynamic Notifications, allowing users to adjust how they are notified based on the content of incoming alerts, thus eliminating the need for separate services for different urgencies. This functionality uses rules-based automation to ensure alerts are delivered with the appropriate urgency, enhancing accuracy and efficiency. For instance, info and warning alerts can trigger low-urgency notifications, while error and critical alerts prompt high-urgency responses, with escalation as needed. The system is supported by an Event Rules Engine, offering further customization for incident notification urgency, even if upstream tools cannot send specific severities. Importantly, Dynamic Notifications can be tailored to specific time windows through the Support Hours feature, enhancing flexibility. Available at no extra cost to customers on Standard and above plans, this feature aims to streamline alert management and improve service-based reporting and analytics.
