PagerDuty Trigger Event Documentation

Overview

The PagerDuty Trigger Event node is part of the PagerDuty integration in the Vantage workflow engine. Trigger a PagerDuty event via Events API.

This node uses the PagerDuty API through Vantage's managed credential system — no manual token handling required.

Settings

Routing Key

• Input Type: String

Summary

• Input Type: String

Severity

• Input Type: String (critical, error, warning, info)

How It Works

1. Receives input data from upstream nodes through configured input ports.
2. Authenticates with PagerDuty using your connected credentials.
3. Executes the API operation with the provided configuration and input data.
4. Returns the result through the output port for downstream processing.

Error handling is built in — if the API call fails, the node throws a descriptive error with the failure reason.

Input and Output

• Input: Accepts data in object or array format from upstream nodes.
• Output: Returns the PagerDuty API response as structured data.

Use Cases

Workflow Automation

Integrate PagerDuty operations into multi-step workflows combining data from multiple sources, transformations, and conditional logic.

Scheduled Operations

Pair with the Schedule Trigger node to run PagerDuty operations on a recurring basis.

Event-Driven Pipelines

Combine with other trigger nodes to react to events and automatically execute PagerDuty actions.
