Assign alert to appropriate team selected from JSM custom field

[Sergei Gridnevskii]

Is there a way to select a Team in Alert using Jira Service Management  integration and custom field in original service request?

I can configure a separate web hook for each team but it looks like an overkill for me.

I have about 10 teams in OpsGenie and want a customer to select a team when he creates a Jira Service Request on portal.

Hello @Sergei Gridnevskii ,

This is Darryl, Opsgenie Support. I am here to help. 😃

Understand that you would like to set up the team auto-allocation for the Opsgenie alerts created by the Jira Service Management integration instead of having multiple Webhooks.

There are 2 workarounds that I can think of as attached below, hope this will be helpful.

Solution 1

Steps

1. Start with opening your Jira Service Management project and adding a custom field called Responder Team.
   1. Click the  icon in the top right-hand corner then Issues
   2. Click Custom fields
   3. Click Create custom field
   4. Choose Select List (Single choice)
   5. Name it Responder Team
   6. Your options are your responder team names defined in Opsgenie
   7. Add the custom field to the necessary screen (for example adding it to the create screen for your project)
2. Now navigate to Project Automation within Jira Service Management

Hi @Darryl Lee 

I would also be very interested in your solution to this problem. Is there any chance that you publish the missing steps somewhere with public access? Or should I create a support request as well? Just asking because I might not be the last one to do so. ;-)

Kind regards, 
Tom
