Create Schedule Rotation

Create a specific schedule rotation in Opsgenie.

Note

Make sure that the API key that's used to create the Opsgenie connection for this card is not team-specific. Otherwise, any input value in the Team ID or Team Name fields on this card will not override the team that's specified by a team-specific API key. It is recommended to create and manage API keys on the Opsgenie API key management page.

Rotation

Time Restrictions Used to limit schedule rotation to a certain day and time of the week, using multiple start and end times for each day of the week. This allows for applying different scheduling rotations at different times.

If Time Only is selected for Add Time Restrictions? options, the following options are available. Hours are rounded down, and minutes are rounded to the closest 00/30.

  • startHour: 0 to 23
  • startMinute: 00 or 30
  • endHour: 0 to 23
  • endMinute: 00 or 30

For example:

Copy
{
    "startHour": 5
    "startMin": 30
    "endHour": 16
    "endMin": 0
}

If Day and Time is selected for Add Time Restrictions? options, the following options are available. Both day and time options are required.

  • startDay: monday to sunday
  • startHour: 0 to 23
  • startMinute: 00 or 30
  • endDay: monday to sunday
  • endHour: 0 to 23
