  • A routing key (integration key) from a PagerDuty service

Getting a Routing Key

  1. Log in to PagerDuty 
  2. Navigate to Services > select the service you want alerts routed to
  3. Go to the Integrations tab
  4. Click Add an integration
  5. Select Events API v2 and click Add

PagerDuty integrations do not currently support the Test Connection feature. Verify the routing key is correct by triggering a test alert from your PagerDuty service.

What This Enables

Once configured, the AI agent and automated workflows can create PagerDuty incidents, such as:

  • Triggering an alert when error rates exceed thresholds
  • Escalating unacknowledged incidents
  • Routing critical findings to the on-call team
