Best practice
For the integration with Oomnitza, create a dedicated user account.
Before you can configure any of the available integrations with PagerDuty, you need to follow the steps in Updating the credentials. PagerDuty requires an API key for authorization.
You must ensure that you put the word Token token=
before the API key you generated when Updating the credentials in Oomnitza. Only account administrators have the ability to generate account API tokens. To find our more about the PagerDuty API refer to the PagerDuty API documentation links below.
