How to include PagerDuty on your PushMon URL

This guide will help you integrate your PagerDuty account to your PushMon account.

1. Configuring a New Service

On your PagerDuty page, click on Configuration > Services.

Click on Add New Service.

Fill up information in the fields. Just make sure that Integration Settings is set to Events API v2

NOTE: One service is enough for all of your PushMon URLs. If you already have a Generic API service, you may also use that.

2. Getting the API Key of Your Service and Putting it on your PushMon URL

To get the Service Key, click on your newly configured service and look for Integration Key

On your PushMon Edit Page, place the Integration Key on the text field under PagerDuty tab.

And that’s it. You’re good to go.

Make sure your whole system is running smoothly.

Processes that run regularly in the background are often unmonitored or send emails regardless of success or failure. This makes it hard for you to notice when things go wrong. Make sure your servers are up, even if they are not accessible from the internet. Make sure your cron jobs or scheduled tasks run on time. Make sure your backup scripts are running as expected. Make sure your hourly scripts are running continuously. Get notified when they don't.

Making sure that the different parts of your system is running fine is easy to do. Just create a PushMon URL and call that URL on the schedule you specify. If we don't hear from you, you will hear from us. We have sample code to get you started quickly.
