What's New in Opsgenie? Monthly Digest, August 2019

[#1]

Hi there! This is our second monthly digest. We've got some exciting things to talk about this month, including  a customer favourite, Dark mode! Take a look to learn more and see various resources on each topic. 

Edge Encryption 
For those of you working with strict data privacy requirements, Edge Encryption might be a great solution when it comes to alerting and incident management. 

Edge Encryption for Opsgenie encrypts your data so that Opsgenie never receives the raw payload directly. You host the encryption app in your own environment, the app bridges Opsgenie and 3rd-party tools. Alert details are only decrypted and displayed in your browser after you send a request to the encryption application. 

When retrieving alert details via the Alert API, the API client sends the alert data to the encryption application, and retrieves it decrypted. 

All alert fields except for alias, message, tags, and priority can be encrypted. Opsgenie requires these fields in order to route alerts. You also won't be able to use routing rules or policies on encrypted fields. 

For more information on how to get set up, check out our documentation.

New Mobile UI 
We’ve released an updated UI for Android and iOS that aligns with our Web app. Once we joined Atlassian we gave the app a facelift to fit in with the flow of the rest of the Atlassian portfolio. Download the new app from Android or iOS and let us know what you think!

Dark Mode 
This is a customer favourite, the worst thing is being on call and having your eyes burned by a bright screen in the middle of the night. Dark mode is currently available in BETA for the web app. We are also working toward releasing this for the mobile app as well in the near future.

That's it for this month!
