How can I customize the message posted on StatusPage when closing the alert & incident from an email

[Guilherme Nicolosi]

We have a StatusPage integration to Opsgenie that's triggered via an email integration.

Basically we have an email integration that receives the notification emails from a Third Party StatusPage. That triggers an alert to be created in Opsgenie which in turn creates a StatusPage incident on our own instance. 

I can tweak the initial message by modifying the alert message and description using a policy and that's all good.

My issue is with the closure. I want to automate the closure of my alert and my StatusPage incident based on the receival of the resolved email notification. However I cannot find a way to modify the alert description. It simply adds the email body to the SP incident.

Hello @Guilherme Nicolosi

Yes, you're right that the standard message as "This Incident has been resolved" gets set out when the Incident is set to Resolved.

You can also customize this message by creating a new Incident template and customizing the message body for the Resolution template as below:



However, this template can only be applied manually when updating an Incident and we don't yet have an option for the templates to be used with the above integration automation from Opsgenie to Statuspage.

I hope this helps answer your query :)

Hello @Guilherme Nicolosi 

Thank you for contacting the Atlassian Community. This is Mubeen.

It seems like you're looking for a way to customize and automate the closure of alerts and StatusPage incidents based on the receipt of a resolved email notification in Opsgenie triggered from Email Integration.

However, for the alerts that are created from other integrations(In your case EmailIntegration) when the alert is closed, you will have the option to define the exact action you want to define to the Statuspage Incident.

May I please confirm if you are noticing any issues with defining these alert conditions?

If helps further troubleshoot the specific issue you can raise a ticket referring to this community post at https://support.atlassian.com/contact/ > Technical issues Bugs > select Opsgenie product. So we can further review your account and help validate the exact account settings to achieve your requirements.

I hope the details provided are helpful.

Hi Mubeen,

Yes, I'm using that option and I am able to properly configure it. The alert gets closed and subsequently the StatusPage incident gets closed and the component is set to operational. However I cannot tweak the message that will be sent.

I'm looking for a way to modify the message during the closure of the SP incident. I don't want to simply transmit the body of the email that triggered the alert to close.

I just noticed I'm mistaken. It's not adding the message from the email. It just adds a default message like this:

Incident resolved

This incident has been resolved.

Even though I would like to be able to customize it, it is acceptable as is.
