xMatters integration
Connect your incident response infrastructure to automatically pull team data and trigger coordinated notifications.
What it connects
- Sync all people from your xMatters instance to track users, roles, and contact preferences across your organization.
- Pull group information including on-call teams and dynamic groups to understand escalation structures and team assignments.
- Import site and location data to map physical offices and regional presence for better incident response coordination.
- Retrieve active notification services to identify all business-critical systems that xMatters monitors and manages.
What it automates
- Create and update user accounts in xMatters when new team members join, ensuring incident notification channels are always current.
- Manage group membership and on-call assignments to automatically keep escalation paths aligned with organizational changes.
- Trigger events and incidents from STLabs to notify the right people at the right time when issues are detected.
- Update incident status and add comments to maintain a complete audit trail and keep stakeholders informed throughout resolution.
In practice
- When a critical infrastructure alert fires in STLabs, automatically escalate through xMatters on-call groups to notify the on-duty team within seconds, bypassing manual routing.
- Keep xMatters user directories synchronized with your organization's current staffing, so new hires automatically appear in notification lists and departing employees are removed from escalation paths.
- Correlate service outages detected by STLabs with active on-call assignments from xMatters to route notifications only to team members currently responsible for that service.
- After resolving a major incident in STLabs, automatically post status updates and lessons-learned to xMatters events, creating a unified incident record for post-mortem reviews.
