How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerSentry issue alert firesSentrySentry
  • ActionFetch affected-user count and event rateSentrySentry
  • LogicGate on distinct users over interval crossing threshold
  • ActionPublish incident banner to status page via HTTPHTTP webhook
  • OutputNotify on-call channel with blast radiusSlack

What it does

It listens for Sentry issue alerts, verifies the error is genuinely affecting a cohort of distinct users rather than one noisy account, and on confirmation publishes a public status banner plus an internal heads-up. This closes the gap between an error appearing in monitoring and customers seeing an acknowledgement.

When to use it

Use it when a code regression produces a measurable spike in user-facing errors and you want the status page updated automatically before the support queue fills with reports. Best for teams who already alert on Sentry but post incidents by hand.

How it works

  1. 1A Sentry issue alert fires the webhook trigger with the error fingerprint.
  2. 2An action pulls the issue's affected-user count and event rate from Sentry.
  3. 3A logic step gates on distinct users over the last interval crossing your bar (for example 25 users in 10 minutes).
  4. 4If confirmed, an HTTP step publishes an incident banner to your status page provider.
  5. 5A final Slack message notifies on-call with the issue link and current blast radius.
