One API call to OpsGenie to create multiple OpsGenie alerts

[Kristin Woodson]

Does anyone know if there is a way to use one API call to OpsGenie to create multiple OpsGenie alerts?

Hi @Kristin Woodson ,

The Create Alert API can only trigger one alert per request. It's not possible for it to create multiple alerts at this time. You'd have to configure some sort of job or script that triggers multiple API integrations to create multiple alerts.

But you can add multiple responders to the body of the Create Alert API to notify multiple teams, users, etc. like outlined in our doc:

{ "responders":[ { "id":"4513b7ea-3b91-438f-b7e4-e3e54af9147c", "type":"team" }, { "name":"NOC", "type":"team" }, { "id":"bb4d9938-c3c2-455d-aaab-727aa701c0d8", "type":"user" }, { "username":"trinity@opsgenie.com", "type":"user" }, { "id":"aee8a0de-c80f-4515-a232-501c0bc9d715", "type":"escalation" }, { "name":"Nightwatch Escalation", "type":"escalation" }, { "id":"80564037-1984-4f38-b98e-8a1f662df552", "type":"schedule" }, { "name":"First Responders Schedule", "type":"schedule" } ] }

Hope that helps.
