Trigger on Key Events
Last updated on
Integration with Key Events
Key Event Trigger Configuration
When using Key Events as trigger sources:
- Set Trigger Condition: In the Triggers section, set the condition to "Key Event Created"
- Map Event to Input: Configure how event data maps to runbook input variables
- Dynamic Execution: Enable automatic execution when specified Key Events occur
- Data Validation: Ensure event data meets runbook input requirements
This approach allows for seamless integration between event detection and automated response, without requiring manual configuration of input variables for each execution.
Benefits
- Automated Response: Immediate response to incidents and alerts without manual intervention
- Consistent Execution: Standardized response procedures triggered by specific conditions
- Scalable Operations: Handle increasing incident volumes without additional manual effort
- Reduced MTTR: Faster incident resolution through automated trigger-based responses
- Operational Efficiency: Free up team members to focus on complex issues requiring human intervention
- Audit Trail: Complete tracking of automated actions and their triggers
- Flexible Configuration: Adapt trigger behavior to changing operational requirements
Next steps
- Go to Create Runbook Triggers to configure key event triggers
- Go to Overview to understand trigger fundamentals
- Go to Create Runbooks to build runbooks that respond to key events
