By Team at Spike.sh • Issue #5 • View online

Thanks for reading, actively looking for feedback on our changelog. We are also sharing all our updates on Twitter.

Mobile view for dashboard

We are launching our first edition of mobile dashboard with limited features. You can check all open incidents and change it’s status too.

Access the same link (https://app.spike.sh) on mobile and let us know what you think.

Automate your workflow with Zapier

Exciting times are near when Zapier is here! We can’t wait to see how you automate more parts of your workflow with our new Zapier app. Some examples -

Create a JIRA / Linear.app ticket for new incidents
Control your Philips Hue Light for new incidents
Connect your CRM with Spike and create new issues

Zapier app should be published by the time we write our next issue. You can still access it here

Prometheus integration updated

A better parser to handle multiple cases
We support auto resolution for Prometheus now

Better Slack notifications

Each emoji in preview represents the state of incident

🔥 - triggered

👩‍💻 - acknowledged

⏱ - acknowledge timeout

✅ - resolved

Bug fixes and improvements 🐞🗡

Updating some legacy modules for Handlebars wrappers
Our API is now in beta (let us know if you want access)
Webhook modal on integration page didn’t show the name of integration, that is fixed now
Slack messages now come with fail safe methods when parsing is stuck
Incidents for integrations section are better aligned
Our billing section now supports COUPON codes
Phone call alerts will give you a proper message when parsing fails on our end

Deprecation notice

We are working on deprecating the old way of adding integrations to a service which was to edit service and add multiple integrations. The recommended way is to use the link on the header. We will stop support for the old way from 15th September.

— Must build an image before deploying and it takes time, so deploys are slow (of course we use CI to do it, it’s not manual).
