PagerDuty plugin

Gitter Jenkins Plugin GitHub release Jenkins Plugin Installs

About this plugin

Allows users to send Change Events and trigger postbuild Incidents via PagerDuty

Features

  • Support for PagerDuty Change Events API
  • Trigger incidents on various job statuses Success/Failure/Aborted/Unstable/Not_Built
  • Trigger incidents based on number of consecutive build results
  • Automatically Resolve incidents when job is back to normal
  • Pipeline compatible
  • TokenMacro consumer (TokenMacro - adds reusable macro expansion capability)

Requirements

Usage

Getting Started

Before you can use this plugin you'll need an integration key (also known as a routing key). This key tells PagerDuty which service the incoming event should be sent to. If you already have a service in PagerDuty you can add an integration to it; otherwise, you can add the integration when creating a new service. For the integration type, choose "Jenkins CI".

Once you have an integration key you can add the appropriate action to your Jenkins project and supply it with the integration key. Be sure to select which job results you want to send an event to PagerDuty.

IMPORTANT!

There is a break in backwards compatibility between versions 4.x.x and 6.x.x

if you are migrating from earlier versions to 6.x.x and above note the following changes:

  • serviceKey is replaced with routingKey
  • incidentKey is replaced with dedupKey
  • incDescription/incDetails are replaced with incidentSummary
  • please note the new fields introduced starting version 6.x.x

Pipeline

Trigger/Resolve Incidents

PLEASE NOTE - routing key and integration key are the same thing!

pagerduty(resolve: false, routingKey: "$ROUTING_KEY [NOT NULL]", 
dedupKey:"$DEDUP_KEY", incidentSummary:"$INCIDENT_SUMMARY", 
incidentSource: "$INCIDENT_SOURCE", incidentSeverity:"$INCIDENT_SEVERITY",
incidentComponent:"$INCIDENT_COMPONENT", incidentGroup:"$INCIDENT_GROUP", incidentClass:"$INCIDENT_CLASS",
customDetails: [key1: "value1", ... , keyN: "valueN"])

if resolve == false, pagerduty triggers an incident and returns the incidentKey

NOTE - To include Custom Details in the step, specify them via a Map as shown above.

Change Events

pagerdutyChangeEvent(integrationKey: '$INTEGRATION_KEY')

You can choose one (or both) of the options to use PagerDuty

Trigger/Resolve Incidents

Using the "PagerDuty Incident Trigger" action, you can trigger or resolve incidents based on the results of a job.

NOTE - To include Custom Details in the trigger, specify them via a JSON string in the textbox

Create Change Events

Using the "PagerDuty Change Events" action, you can create a change event when a job completes.

Create Change Events From A Freestyle Job

The configuration of a freestyle job allows for including PagerDuty change events as build steps by passing the integration key, a custom summary text field and custom details in JSON format. If the summary text field is left blank, the default description of the Jenkins build job and its build number are used. Custom details are optional. Any custom details provided will be merged into the default custom detail fields (build number, cause, duration). Token substitution works on all fields. Note in the post build version, you need to use a slightly different syntax. Ex. ${ENV, var="PD_INTEGRATION_KEY"}

Here's an example of a freestyle job configuration page:

The PagerDuty change event results of the above freestyle job are shown below:
