  • OutputWrite work-order back to directoryAirtableAirtable

What it does

Closes the gap between a generic alert and knowing who to call. When an alert names a building, zone, and system type, this workflow queries an Airtable vendor directory to find the contracted vendor and their on-call service for that exact scope, then dispatches the page to the correct PagerDuty service and opens a work-order record so the dispatch is tracked end to end.

When to use it

Use this when different vendors cover different systems or buildings (one firm for chillers, another for elevators, a third for electrical) and the right routing depends on a lookup rather than a fixed rule. It removes the manual "who covers this?" step.

How it works

  1. 1A facilities alert arrives at the webhook with building, zone, and system type.
  2. 2An Airtable lookup matches the zone and system to the responsible vendor and their PagerDuty service key.
  3. 3A logic step confirms a vendor was found, branching to a fallback owner if not.
  4. 4The alert is dispatched to the matched vendor's PagerDuty service.
  5. 5A work-order row is written back to Airtable linking the alert, vendor, and dispatch time.
