Integrate OpsGenie with Gmail

Gmail is the email server developed by Google which is used by millions of users who are willing to use their services. As Gmail is very popular, many users cannot stop using it and then the integration of OpsGenie with Gmail is extremely important.

Integration of OpsGenie and Gmail

As Gmail is an email server, there are many ways to integrate it with other applications; for example, the integration with Outlook. However, this integration is not what we want because some users do not like Outlook or do not like Microsoft Office or any Microsoft product. In addition, the integration with Outlook is through a plugin which takes a lot of time to install.

The integration between OpsGenie and Gmail is much easier and faster than the one between OpsGenie and Outlook. This is because Gmail’s API allows us to integrate it with other applications very easily. For this reason, we have integrated OpsGenie with Gmail in a few minutes and without using a plugin. The steps to integrate OpsGenie with Gmail are as fplows:

• Creating a project in Gmail.
• Adding a sample notification to the project in Gmail.
• In OpsGenie, creating a new project and adding a notification channel named “Gmail”.
• In OpsGenie, adding a webhook in the “Gmail” channel.

In the webhook page, add the URL of the project in Gmail and save changes. Now, whenever there is a new notification in our project in Gmail, a notification will be sent to the channel “Gmail” in OpsGenie and then you can create a notification template in that channel.

Benefits of Integration of OpsGenie and Gmail

OpsGenie’s main benefit over other tops such as PagerDuty, ZenDesk or Zendesk is that it supports more than 70 different application programming interfaces (APIs. and has a smart notification engine which makes the notification faster and more efficient than other tops. It can also send notifications to multiple platforms such as Slack, HipChat, IRC and many others simultaneously. In addition, it can send notifications to mobile devices such as Android and iOS and also allows you to set custom rules to determine whether a notification should be sent or not. All these features make it one of the best tops for sending notifications and respving alerts.
