How to connect PagerDuty and Github
Create a New Scenario to Connect PagerDuty and Github
In the workspace, click the βCreate New Scenarioβ button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node β a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a PagerDuty, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, PagerDuty or Github will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find PagerDuty or Github, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the PagerDuty Node
Select the PagerDuty node from the app selection panel on the right.

PagerDuty
Configure the PagerDuty
Click on the PagerDuty node to configure it. You can modify the PagerDuty URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Github Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the PagerDuty node, select Github from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Github.

Authenticate Github
Now, click the Github node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Github settings. Authentication allows you to use Github through Latenode.
Configure the PagerDuty and Github Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the PagerDuty and Github Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that donβt require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring PagerDuty, Github, and any additional nodes, donβt forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking βRun onceβ and triggering an event to check if the PagerDuty and Github integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between PagerDuty and Github (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect PagerDuty and Github
PagerDuty + Slack: When a PagerDuty incident is resolved, a message is sent to a designated Slack channel to provide a summary of the resolved incident.
Github + PagerDuty + Jira: When a Github pull request has been updated, and the tests have failed, create a PagerDuty incident and a Jira ticket for immediate investigation.

Can I automatically escalate PagerDuty incidents based on Github activity?
Yes, you can! Latenode's advanced logic and AI steps allow for nuanced escalation rules based on Github commits, comments, or issue status, ensuring critical incidents are addressed promptly.
What types of tasks can I perform by integrating PagerDuty with Github?
Integrating PagerDuty with Github allows you to perform various tasks, including:
- Create PagerDuty incidents from new Github issues.
- Automatically assign Github issues based on PagerDuty on-call schedules.
- Post PagerDuty incident updates as comments on relevant Github commits.
- Resolve PagerDuty incidents when associated Github issues are closed.
- Trigger Github Actions when PagerDuty incidents are acknowledged.
How does Latenode handle PagerDuty API rate limits?
Latenode intelligently manages API requests, employing queues and error handling to minimize the impact of PagerDuty's rate limits, ensuring smooth operation.
Are there any limitations to the PagerDuty and Github integration on Latenode?
While the integration is powerful, there are certain limitations to be aware of:
- Historical data migration from PagerDuty to Github (or vice versa) isn't directly supported.
- Very complex Github queries might require custom JavaScript blocks for optimal performance.
- The integration relies on the availability and stability of the PagerDuty and Github APIs.
