What it does

Converts a critical Zendesk ticket into a fully-staged PagerDuty incident. Instead of a bare alert, the on-call engineer receives a package linking the customer's ticket history, the relevant troubleshooting runbook from Confluence, and a severity summary.

When to use it

Use it when production-impacting support tickets must page on-call, and you want the page to carry context rather than just a ticket number. Best for teams whose runbooks live in Confluence and whose escalation rotation lives in PagerDuty.

How it works

  1. 1A Zendesk ticket is set to priority `urgent`, firing the trigger.
  2. 2The flow pulls the ticket body, requester, and the customer's last five tickets from Zendesk.
  3. 3It searches Confluence for a runbook matching the product area or error keyword.
  4. 4A branch checks whether a runbook was found and tailors the page payload accordingly.
  5. 5It triggers a PagerDuty incident with the summary, ticket link, customer history, and runbook URL in the body.
  6. 6The PagerDuty incident link is written back onto the Zendesk ticket as an internal note.
