Opsgenie Integration

Connect Opsgenie with ilert to relay alerts, route on-call, and keep alerts in sync during migrations or hybrid setups.

Opsgenie is an on-call and incident management tool by Atlassian used to aggregate alerts, notify responders, and manage escalations. Since 2025, Atlassian has stopped selling Opsgenie and plans to shut down the platform by 2027. To make migration from Opsgenie to ilertarrow-up-right easier, we introduced this integration. With it, you can forward alerts and incident updates into ilert – where you can consolidate routing, apply deduplication, trigger alert actions, and publish status updates.
