PagerDuty is a digital operations management platform. It is designed to alert clients to disruptions and outages through the use of machine learning and automation. These issues are identified in real-time, alerting the right people to respond to any problems faster so that they are prevented in the future.

  • From the main menu, select Issues, then All Issues
  • From the Issues page, select one or more issues you want to send.
  • Select Send To > PagerDuty.

A pop-up is displayed, with a link to the issue you have sent to PagerDuty. If there is an error, this information will be displayed instead.

You can also send an issue from the Recent Scans window:

  • Next to the relevant scan, select Report. The report is displayed.
  • Scroll down to the Technical Report section.
