PagerDuty¶
Robusta can send three types of data to PagerDuty:
Change Events - for example, when Deployments are updated
Enriched Prometheus alerts - Robusta receives alerts from Prometheus, correlates alerts with Pods logs and other data, forwards the result to PagerDuty
Standalone alerts - Robusta listens to the APIServer and sends PagerDuty errors like CrashLoopBackOff
Example Output:
Prerequisites¶
You will need an integration key for a PagerDuty service:
Login to your PagerDuty dashboard
Navigate to Service > New Service (Top right)
Input Name and Description and Tap on the Next button
Choose Generate a new Escalation Policy or Select an existing Escalation Policy and Tap on next
On the next screen input the configuration details
On the Integrations screen, search for and select the integration "Robusta.dev" and tap on the Create Service button in the bottom on the screen
Copy the Integration Key. A sample key would look like: f6c6e02a5a1a490ee02e90cde19ee388
Configuring the PagerDuty sink¶
Sending Alerts to PagerDuty¶
Add the following code to your generated_values.yaml. This will send all alerts Robusta receives - whether they originate in Prometheus or Robusta itself.
sinksConfig:
- pagerduty_sink:
name: main_pagerduty_sink
api_key: <api key> # e.g. f653634653463678fadas43534506
Save the file and run
helm upgrade robusta robusta/robusta --values=generated_values.yaml
Example Output:
To view the Alerts, on PagerDuty's dashboard navigate to Incidents > Alerts
Sending Kubernetes Changes to PagerDuty¶
Add the following code to your generated_values.yaml file. This will send all changes to PagerDuty, in addition to the alerts mentioned above.
sinksConfig:
- pagerduty_sink:
name: main_pagerduty_sink
api_key: <api key> # e.g. f653634653463678fadas43534506
customPlaybooks:
- actions:
- resource_babysitter: {}
sinks:
- main_pagerduty_sink
triggers:
- on_deployment_all_changes: {}
- on_daemonset_all_changes: {}
- on_statefulset_all_changes: {}
Save the file and run
helm upgrade robusta robusta/robusta --values=generated_values.yaml
To view the Changed Events, on PagerDuty's dashboard navigate to Incidents > Recent Changes
