Extract information from alerts

[Jean-Pierre KELLER]

Hello,

When I extract the information from the alerts in Opsgenie, I would like to add the "tags" in the generated CSV file. How should I proceed?
Thank you

Cordially

Hey Jean-Pierre,

When you download the CSV file generated from the Alerts List page in Opsgenie GUI, it contains information on limited fields, not including the tags field.

Therefore, if you would like to extract the Alerts List with all the information, I would suggest using the List Alerts API: https://docs.opsgenie.com/docs/alert-api#list-alerts where you can list multiple alerts with information on more alert fields, including tags.

As the resulting data is in JSON and you would like a CSV, you can use a simple JSON to CSV convertor to get the data in a CSV for example this online tool here: https://www.convertcsv.com/json-to-csv.htm

Furthermore, would just like to add that we do have a Feature Request [ALX-3217] which would allow customizing the fields you can add in the CSV that can be then directly generated from the Opsgenie GUI. I shall update you here once it is implemented.

Please note that our Product team reviews all feature requests together and they prioritize those with higher demand to be implemented first and any feature requests will take months until is ready since it needs to go through Design, Development, Testing, and rolling out to Production.

Further, every feature requests tickets are logged on our internal system without public access for our customers.

How do I integrate my filter in the query: "description: Threshold of 98% reached for the service"
'https://api.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts?query=description: 98% threshold reached for the service' gives me a "bad request" error

Hey Jean-Pierre,

You can try the following:

https://api.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts?query=description%3A%2298%25%22

sorry this URL doesn't open

{"message":"Could not authenticate","took":0.0,"requestId":"aa703b86-d0f3-4607-9651-704fc3a15eea"}

It could be that your account is in the EU region. Hence you can try: 

https://api.eu.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts?query=description%3A%2298%25%22

[Jean-Pierre KELLER]

same result :

{"message":"Could not authenticate","took":0.001,"requestId":"b3edb3c6-3068-4853-8198-e6570b1cd465"}

Hey Jean-Pierre,

If you are directly running this API query in the browser you will need to add the apiKey parameter as well and define an API key from your account there the following way:

https://api.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts?query=description%3A%2298%25%22&apiKey=XXX-XX-XXX

or for EU:

https://api.eu.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts?query=description%3A%2298%25%22&apiKey=XXX-XX-XXX

it works.
thanks a lot for your help
