Page your on-call team from Sentry alerts

Add Webalert as an action in your Sentry issue and metric alert rules. When a rule fires, Webalert opens an incident and pages whoever is on call. When the issue is resolved in Sentry, the incident resolves too.

No credit card · on-call for up to 5 responders · Issue alerts and metric alerts in Sentry (SaaS and self-hosted).

What Webalert does with Sentry alerts

  • Opens an incident when an alert rule fires for an issue and pages the escalation policy.
  • Resolves it when the issue is resolved or archived in Sentry.
  • Opens and resolves incidents for metric alerts (critical, warning, resolved).
  • Maps Sentry levels to severity: fatal is critical, error is high.

Who gets paged comes from your on-call rotation and escalation policy. Each person picks how they’re reached: SMS, phone call, email, push or Slack.

Questions

Which plans include the Sentry integration?
Starter includes 3 inbound integrations and Business includes unlimited. Phone and SMS paging is the on-call add-on at €12 per responder a month, and every trial includes it for up to 5 responders.
Does it page by phone?
Yes. Each person sets how they’re paged, for example SMS right away and a call after 2 minutes. Press 1 on the call or reply 1 to the SMS to acknowledge and stop the escalation.
What if nobody answers?
The escalation policy moves to the next level: the secondary, then the team lead, as many levels as you set. A page that can’t reach anyone escalates straight away.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. Every new account gets a 14-day trial with on-call for up to 5 responders, no credit card.
