1. Mute channels when Environment = "TEST" -> reduce noise for Development/Testing Environments
2. Trigger an outbound webhook only for incidents that have been escalated

Setting Up Your Advanced Incident Routing

​

Step 1: Create New Routing

1

Create New Routing

To begin setting up your incident routing, navigate to the Advanced Routing section in the sidebar and click on Create New Routing.

2

Name and Create Your Routing

Under ‘Display Name’ enter the name for your routing like “My First Routing” and hit Create Routing.

​

Step 2: Add Rules

​

Define Conditions

• Statuses: Choose between Open or Resolved.
• Severities: Select the severity level such as Minor, Warning, or Critical.
• Integrations: Pick the integrated tools that should trigger the rule.
• Services:
  Only for users of status pages.
  Pick the affected services that should trigger the rule.
• Intents: Filter by the incident’s current state, like resolved, escalated, etc.
• Attributes: Create custom conditions by setting Name and Value attributes.
• Apply only during these times and days: You can add specific weekdays and daytimes for the routing rule to be active.
• Apply only once during: You can add a specific range in time for the routing rule to be active only once.

​

Configure Actions

• Assign to Teams: Directs the incident to specified teams. Selecting this option replaces the original incident’s team assignment. To retain the original team alongside new assignments, explicitly include it in the selection. Learn more about this incident action here.
  This feature is only available if the routing’s team is associated with an organization. Organizations are available on Pro and Enterprise plans.
• Change Severity: Update the incident’s severity level.
• Add Interaction: Insert an interaction, such as a comment or status update.
  • Affects Services:
    Only if Affects was selected as Interaction
    Select the affected Service(s).
• Add/Set Attributes: Add attributes to the incident or adjust the value of an attribute under certain conditions. You can also do this in the payload mapping section of each inbound integration.
• Discard: Choose to discard the incident if it meets certain criteria.
• Rule Flow Control: Decide whether to continue with subsequent rules or not.
• Delay Actions (min.): Decide whether to delay the defined actions by a certain number of minutes or not.

​

Choose Channels

• Mute all Channels: Silence notifications across all channels (not including outbound integrations, see below).
• Channels: Select only specific channels (SMS, Email, Voice Call, Push Notification) that should be triggered when conditions are met, e.g. you can define that only for the conditions you set an SMS is sent.
• Mute all Integrations: Silence notifications across all outbound integration.
• Outbound Integrations: Select only specific outbound integrations that should be triggered when conditions are met, e.g. you can define that only for the conditions you set a generic outbound is triggered.
