API and Infrastructure as Code Ready

API and Infrastructure as Code Ready

🍫 API First and Infrastructure as Code Ready

Our API is now stable and using OpenAPI Specification. This will allow you to programmatically control the platform.

As an API-first company, everything you can do in the UI can be done via our REST APIs without clicking around. View our documentation here.

Now, integrate into existing Infrastructure as Code workflows or build new ones with Rootly.

The use cases are endless. For example:

  • Create new incidents automatically from internal tools alerting (e.g. SLOs)
  • Export and offload incident metrics to your BI tool of choice
  • Automate updating services and creating new teams

Have a custom use case or integration in mind with our API? Reach out to support@rootly.io or on Slack and we'll help you build it.

  • 💅 Cleaned up how selecting marking incident as Mitigated and Resolved looks in Slack
  • 💅 Incident timeline now displays system messages coming from Rootly instead of who created the incident
  • 💅 Link incident variables to new documentation, stay tuned for V2 where you'll no longer need to leave Rootly to browse
  • 🐛 Fixed issue where scheduled maintenance windows would occasionally display as an active incident in UI only
  • 🐛 Fixed issue where action items created in Rootly sometimes did not get created in Linear
  • 🐛 Fixed issue where Zoom room links were not getting attached to incident notification emails
