Manage and track PagerDuty in Slack with Actioner. Start using the app in Slack immediately after you install it. Actioner provides a seamless Slack PagerDuty integration. 🔥 Manage your incidents through their lifecycle and track their updates in incident war rooms. 🌟 Let all responders take relevant actions with all the context needed — all within Slack. 🔎 Bring visibility on the incident resolution progress, and keep stakeholders and customers informed on the status and other significant changes. ⏰ Increase collaboration during incidents, and reduce resolution times with Actioner. ## Features - PagerDuty notifications on Slack: Get notified of PagerDuty incidents and track & manage their lifecycle through Slack. - PagerDuty actions on Slack: Create PagerDuty incidents from Slack using fire 🔥emoji. Assign, update incidents, and add notes or responders without leaving Slack. - Post-incident checklist: Remind critical tasks to your incident responders in incident war rooms. - On-call management: Hand off your on-call from Slack. Track and collect handoff requests in one channel, take the on-call with a single click and inform your colleagues from one place. Check on-call schedules. ## How it works Actioner connects your PagerDuty & Slack and brings incident & on-call management to your teams. Your team can report incidents by adding emojis to messages in dedicated Slack channels and tracking the status of incidents in broadcast channels. This app brings together incident assignees, responders, on-calls, and stakeholders in war rooms, enabling them to focus on resolving incidents in Slack. Actioner also notifies incident assignees and responders through direct messages in Slack and continues to guide them throughout the incident. As soon as an incident is updated, Actioner keeps updating war rooms and responders by suggesting follow-up actions relevant to that update, such as acknowledging or reassigning incidents. Along with managing incidents, this app allows your team to check who is on call in Slack.

Data hosting details
Actioner is a cloud-native product whose infrastructure is hosted on industry-leading cloud provider Amazon Web Services (AWS). Actioner cloud services and data are hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Where all our computing, messaging, network, and storage layers are located in the US West, our browser application is distributed via our CDN network all over the world. As a design standard, all Actioner services as well as the upstream computing, messaging, network and storage services are running on multiple availability zones (AZs) so that the traffic and the data are distributed among them. This design allows us to tolerate zone-specific failures with no downtime. This multi-zone high availability is the first line of defense for geographic and environmental risks and means that services running in multi-AZ deployments should be able to withstand AZ failure.
