PagerDuty

Tool

Create PagerDuty incidents through workflow Tool steps.

Integrate PagerDuty

Overview

PagerDuty is a Tool provider for creating incidents from Novu workflows. Each subscriber connects an Events API v2 routing key, allowing one workflow to page different PagerDuty services and escalation policies.

How it works

When a workflow reaches a PagerDuty Tool step, Novu resolves the routing key stored for the subscriber and sends an Events API v2 event. The step content becomes the incident summary, and Novu uses a deterministic deduplication key so retries update the same incident instead of creating duplicates. If the subscriber has no PagerDuty endpoint, Novu skips the step.

Configure

Create an Events API v2 integration in PagerDuty, add PagerDuty under Tool in the Novu Integration Store, and register the routing key and region as a subscriber channel endpoint. Add a PagerDuty Tool step to a workflow and send a test incident.
