Short answer

How do I coordinate major incidents with my AI?

You can trigger new high-priority incidents and pull real-time status updates for existing ones. This allows you to mobilize responders and track progress without leaving your AI client. You'll see how the AI handles the lifecycle of a disruption below.

Incident outcomes.

Where every issue lands.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of data entry and status checks.

TRIGGER

Instant incident creation

The AI starts a new high-priority event in Opsgenie. You get an immediate record to begin the response process.

MONITOR

Live status tracking

Your agent pulls current details on active disruptions. You stay updated on whether an issue is still open or resolved.

AUDIT

Full incident lists

The AI scans your recent history to find specific past or present issues. This helps you identify patterns in service failures.

HUMAN

Manual intervention needed

The AI cannot resolve the underlying technical root cause. You still need to lead the actual troubleshooting and fix the service.

The workflow

What your AI does when an incident occurs.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat and your Opsgenie environment.

  1. Start the alert

    When a service fails, you tell your AI to open a new high-priority ticket. It sends the necessary details to Opsgenie immediately.

    create_incident

  2. Check progress

    You can ask for the specific details of an ongoing disruption. The AI fetches the current state and metadata for that specific ID.

    get_incident

  3. Review history

    If you need to see what else is broken, the AI pulls a list of all current incidents. This gives you a bird's-eye view of the system health.

    list_incidents

  4. Verify status

    You can confirm if an incident is still active. The AI reads the latest status from the platform.

    get_incident

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI resolve the incident for me?

    No. The AI can create and retrieve incident data, but it cannot change the resolution status or close incidents.

    The AI only sees the data it retrieves through the specific tools provided, such as incident lists and individual incident details.

    Can the AI delete old incidents?

    No. There is no tool available to delete or remove incident records.

  • 05

    How does the AI know which incident I am talking about?

    You should provide the specific incident ID or a clear name so the AI can use the correct tool to find it.
