OpsGenie - DevHelm

Connect DevHelm to OpsGenie to automatically create and resolve alerts. Like PagerDuty, OpsGenie uses trigger-resolve lifecycle — alerts resolve automatically when the DevHelm incident clears.

Setup

1

Create an OpsGenie API integration

In OpsGenie, go to Settings → Integrations → Add Integration
Select API integration
Copy the API Key
Note your region (us or eu)

2

Create the alert channel in DevHelm

devhelm alert-channels create \
  --name "OpsGenie Alerts" \
  --type opsgenie \
  --config '{"channelType":"opsgenie","apiKey":"your-opsgenie-api-key","region":"us"}'

alertChannels:
  - name: OpsGenie Alerts
    config:
      channelType: opsgenie
      apiKey: ${OPSGENIE_API_KEY}
      region: us

3

Test the channel

devhelm alert-channels test <channel-id>

Configuration

Field	Description	Required
`apiKey`	OpsGenie API key for alert creation	Yes
`region`	OpsGenie API region: `us` or `eu`	Yes

Lifecycle behavior

DevHelm event	OpsGenie action
Incident created	Creates a new alert

Troubleshooting

Alerts not creating

Verify the API key has permission to create alerts
