PagerDuty Notifier

Desktop notifications for your PagerDuty incidents.

What is PagerDuty Notifier?

PagerDuty Notifier is a sleek, user-friendly Chrome extension that ensures PagerDuty incidents never go unnoticed. Ideally designed with options that allow you to personalize your alert mechanism, it displays triggered incidents as desktop notifications. It provides flexibility to filter incidents based on users, services, and urgency levels. What sets it apart is the quick action it allows by letting users acknowledge and resolve incidents straight from the notification itself. Its purpose is to supplement rather than replace the primary alert mechanism offered by PagerDuty.

A great tool that can help a lot in productivity if there are some important improvement added. Currently the notification shows Service name. There can be a lot of services clubbed under a single service name. Example all alerts from Nagios can be under a Service named Nagios, all alerts from Prometheus could be under a Service named Prometheus. In this case if there is a failure of a certain service like apache failing in a xyx host, the notification will currenly show only Service: Nagios, which is not useful. So instead of showing Service name if the SERVICEDESC and HOSTNAME is shown then it would have been great. For now i have to always open Pager Duty to see what actual service description failed for what host, under a particular service.

Really needs to stop using a tiny little configuration area that is so long and can't even see it all. Please fix that, and it might be worth using. :) I also seem to only ever see a red "undefined" text for alerts, regardless of anything.
