Alert notifications not delivering

PagerDuty may fail to send SMS, phone, push, or email notifications during platform outages, leaving on-call engineers uninformed.

On-call routing failures

Incidents may not route to the correct on-call responder or escalation policy during degraded PagerDuty service.

Webhook and integration errors

Inbound webhooks from monitoring tools may fail to create incidents, or outbound webhooks may not fire during outages.

Incident dashboard loading slowly

The PagerDuty web dashboard or mobile app may be slow or unresponsive during periods of infrastructure degradation.

How do I troubleshoot PagerDuty issues?

1
Check the PagerDuty status page immediately
Since PagerDuty is your alerting system, always check status.pagerduty.com first during a suspected outage.
2
Test notification channels manually
Send a test notification from your PagerDuty account to verify whether SMS, email, or push alerts are working.
3
Set up a backup alerting channel
Configure a secondary alert channel (Slack, email, SMS via Twilio) as a fallback during PagerDuty outages.
4
Verify API key and integration tokens
Ensure your integration API keys and routing keys are valid and have not expired or been revoked.
5
Check your firewall and webhook endpoints
Verify that your webhook receiver is accessible and not blocking PagerDuty IP ranges.
