IT OPS

Turn a PagerDuty incident into a Notion status-update draft

On a new high-urgency PagerDuty incident, this writes a customer-facing status update as a draft row in a Notion publish queue with severity and impact pre-filled for review.

What it does

It watches PagerDuty for newly triggered incidents and creates a ready-to-review public status update inside a Notion database that acts as your publish queue. Each entry includes a plain-language summary, a proposed customer-facing severity, the affected service, and a draft status (Investigating / Identified / Monitoring). Nothing is public until a teammate flips the row to Approved.

When to use it

Use it when PagerDuty is your source of truth for incidents and your comms team manages public updates in Notion. It removes the lag between an engineer getting paged and a draft being ready for the comms owner to polish and publish.

How it works

  1. 1PagerDuty triggers a new incident and fires the workflow.
  2. 2A logic step branches on urgency — only high-urgency incidents create a public draft; low-urgency ones are skipped.
  3. 3An LLM step maps the internal incident title and service to a customer-friendly summary and a suggested public severity.
  4. 4A Notion row is created in the status-update queue with state "Draft — needs approval," linking back to the PagerDuty incident for the comms owner.
