Why teams connect PagerDuty and Sysaid

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Sysaid to the systems engineering runs in PagerDuty, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Sysaid is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. PagerDuty is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Service Requests, Problems, Changes, Users in Sysaid with Users, Teams, Schedules, Escalation Policies in PagerDuty field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Create SysAid Incidents from monitoring or error-tracking alerts, then write status and resolution back so both systems stay aligned.
  • 02 Sync Users, Groups, and Companies from an HRIS or identity provider so requester and agent records, departments, and managers stay current in SysAid.
  • 03 Write Schedules and Escalation Policies from a workforce tool or source-of-truth spreadsheet so rotations and overrides stay consistent across teams.
  • 04 Mirror Services and their integration keys with a CMDB or service catalog so ownership and tier metadata stay aligned in both directions.

Common sync patterns

Where PagerDuty watches operations: live volumes for visibility

Open items, throughput, and error counts from Sysaid replicate into PagerDuty, so the operational view reflects what is actually happening in the business.

One shared record across both systems

Where both systems keep records for the same contacts, items, or users, a correction in either updates the other, ending dual maintenance and keeping IDs aligned for every other flow.

Where PagerDuty tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Sysaid opens or updates a matching issue in PagerDuty, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.

What you can sync between PagerDuty and Sysaid

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

PagerDuty objects Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Incidents Core records with status of triggered, acknowledged, or resolved plus urgency and assignments; created, updated, and resolved two-way, with V3 webhooks firing on each transition. Incidents Break/fix tickets under /api/v1/sr with type=incident; created and updated two-way with status, priority, assignee, category, and SLA fields. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Users Responders with contact methods and notification rules; provisioned and updated two-way to keep the on-call roster aligned with an HRIS or identity provider. Users End users and admins on the /users endpoint; synced with an HRIS or identity source to keep requester and agent records current. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
On-Calls Computed view of who is on call now, derived from schedules and escalation policies; read-only, ideal for pushing current responders into other systems. Problems Root-cause records that group related incidents; read and written to keep problem management aligned with an external ITSM or reporting store. On-Calls is specific to PagerDuty and Problems to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Notes and Log Entries Notes are writable to append context to an incident; log entries are a read-only record of every action taken on that incident. Changes Change records (type=change) with approval and scheduling fields; synced two-way to drive CAB review and deployment workflows. Notes and Log Entries is specific to PagerDuty and Changes to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Services Technical services that group incidents and hold integration keys; read and written two-way, with service.created, service.updated, and service.deleted webhook events. Assets Hardware and software inventory; read out to a warehouse or written from a discovery or CMDB source of truth. Services is specific to PagerDuty and Assets to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Groupings of users, services, and escalation policies; synced two-way so membership mirrors org structure from an IdP or HRIS. Configuration Items (CIs) CMDB entries and their relationships; synced with an external CMDB or asset database for one inventory view. Teams is specific to PagerDuty and Configuration Items (CIs) to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between PagerDuty and Sysaid

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

PagerDuty Sysaid Sub-second propagation

DetectionPagerDuty notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated).

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Sysaid through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Sysaid PagerDuty Sub-second propagation

DetectionSysaid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to PagerDuty through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • PagerDuty: REST API allows 960 requests per minute per token and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; the Events API is rate-limited separately per integration key.
  • Sysaid: Requests are throttled per the X-RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset headers; list calls are paginated with a limit parameter and each org is capped at 100 application keys.

How the PagerDuty and Sysaid connectors work

PagerDuty

Integration surface
REST API v2 (plus Events API v2 for inbound alerts)
Authentication
REST API token via the Authorization: Token header (account-level for full access or user-level scoped to the user's permissions), or OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code / PKCE); the Events API v2 uses a per-service routing (integration) key
Change detection
V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated); list endpoints also support polling with updated_at and since/until windows
Capabilities

Rate limits
REST API allows 960 requests per minute per token and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; the Events API is rate-limited separately per integration key.
PagerDuty setup guide

Sysaid

Integration surface
REST API (JSON)
Authentication
Client-credentials app keys: an application key (clientId/clientSecret) is created via /v1/application-keys, then exchanged at /v1/access-tokens for a bearer token (default 24h, up to 30 days); an x-sysaid-accountid header scopes the account. Legacy V0 uses session-cookie login.
Change detection
Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature; otherwise poll the /sr endpoint filtering on update_time.gte.
