What are Pagerduty services

As per Pagerduty:

A technical service reflects a discrete piece of functionality that is wholly owned by one team. One or more technical services combine to deliver customer-facing or business capabilities.

Services interact with /chatops oncall commands to display who is currently on-call in Slack.

Change management

As the Pagerduty changes are unique in deployment, please see Pagerduty change management for more information.

Labels to use

For all issues and MRs involving Pagerduty fields, the label Support-Ops-Category::Pagerduty should be used.

Change criticality

Due to wildly varying nature and impact adding/editing/deleting things in Pagerduty can impose, all issues/MRs related to Pagerduty need to have the their criticality manually determined

Notes

As part of PagerDuty’s Slack V2 integration, all services now include Trigger an incident in PagerDuty from the Slack command line by typing “/pd trigger” by default.

Services listed here that show Slack under their listed integrations are also using the legacy slash command integration.
