Create an integration with StatusPage

Use this StatusPage integration to notify StatusPage when there are service issues that impact your platform.

To implement the integration, you will:

1. Create a pair of alerts:
   • An alert configured with a condition to trigger a StatusPage update
   • An alert configured with the opposite trigger condition, to update the StatusPage when the conditions return to normal
2. Create a pair of custom endpoints to update a specific component, then attach each endpoint to the relevant alert:
   • An endpoint to update the component with the triggered status
   • An endpoint to update the component with the status Operational
