Overview

This topic explains how to use the LaunchDarkly PagerDuty integration for guarded rollouts.

You can use guarded rollouts to notify you or automatically roll back changes that have a negative effect on your app's performance. The PagerDuty integration for Guardian Edition lets you send alerts to PagerDuty when LaunchDarkly detects a regression or automatically rolls back a guarded rollout.

To set up the integration, you must first add LaunchDarkly as a service in PagerDuty, then configure the integration in LaunchDarkly.

Add the LaunchDarkly integration to a new PagerDuty service

In PagerDuty, add the LaunchDarkly integration to a PagerDuty service by following the instructions at Add integrations to an existing service. After you have added the integration, copy the Integration key to use in the next step.

You need to add the LaunchDarkly integration to a PagerDuty service only once, even if you are configuring multiple integrations to target that service in LaunchDarkly.

Configure the PagerDuty integration in LaunchDarkly

To configure the PagerDuty for Guardian Edition integration in LaunchDarkly:

Navigate to the Integrations page and find "PagerDuty - Guardian Edition."
Click Add integration. The "Create PagerDuty configuration" panel appears.
Give the integration a human-readable Name.
Add the PagerDuty integration key you copied from the previous step.
(Optional) If you want to send events to PagerDuty from a specific environment only, select an environment in the Project and environment filters menu.
Select event types in the Events filter to send to PagerDuty:

Measured rollout regression detected: PagerDuty alerts you when a regression is detected on a rollout.
Measured rollout reverted: PagerDuty resolves any related incidents when a rollout is manually or automatically rolled back.

Select a PagerDuty Severity level for the LaunchDarkly events you receive in PagerDuty. To learn more, read Dynamic Notifications.
After reading the Terms and Conditions, check the I have read and agree to the Integration Terms and Conditions checkbox.
Click Save configuration.

Your PagerDuty instance now receives events from LaunchDarkly.
