Required, Default, and Customizable Fields

🌾 Required, Default, and Customizable Fields

We are introducing Form Fields that will allow you to customize what you capture whenever an incident is created, updated, mitigated, and resolved.

Why? Incident response is unique across every organization and the data captured will vary dramatically. Where one organization may care about the incident type when the incident is resolved others may not. Customization is crucial to fit each organizations data models.

  • Ability to mark fields as required for data compliance
  • Ability to pre-populate default fields (e.g. severity is always triage until updated otherwise)
  • Support across both Slack and Web Platform with independent control
  • Reorder fields that reflect the how they show up in /incident new and in Web Platform

With the introduction of Form Fields, we've deprecated the need to separately manage Slack and Web Platform from separate locations and merged it in a single pane of glass.

This is now GA for all customers, try it here.
