Opsgenie

Causely can send root cause alerts directly to Opsgenie channels, helping engineering and IT teams stay informed and aligned during incidents. Alerts include high-context diagnostics, like impacted services, severity, and a clear summary, so you can take action quickly without switching tools.

Configuration​

To integrate Opsgenie with Causely, you must install the Causelybot and configure it as your Opsgenie webhook endpoint. The bot listens for alerts from the Causely platform and posts them to your desired Opsgenie channels.

  1. Follow the installation instructions for the Causelybot in the official GitHub repository: Causelybot

  2. Once deployed, update your causely-values.yaml file to include the executor and the bot's URL endpoint.

For example, if you deploy the Causelybot in the foo namespace of your cluster, you can configure the webhook endpoint in your causely-values.yaml file like this:

executor:
  enabled: true

notifications:
  webhook:
    url: "http://<CAUSELYBOT_FQDN/IP>:5000/webhook"
    token: "<YOUR_CAUSELYBOT_TOKEN>"
    enabled: true
note

Make sure the Causelybot is accessible from your Causely deployment and properly configured to post to your Opsgenie workspace and channel. Ensure the Opsgenie channel webhook is set up to accept incoming messages and that the Causelybot has access permissions.

To install the Causely agent with the Opsgenie integration enabled, run:

causely agent install --cluster-name <cluster-name> --values ./causely-values.yaml
