Overview

Follow this migration workflow to rebuild your PagerDuty on-call structure in Datadog, team by team. It reuses your existing PagerDuty schedules and escalation policies as building blocks so you can review, tweak, or discard each resource before it goes live.

By rebuilding your on‑call setup from only current, relevant PagerDuty data, you avoid bringing legacy clutter into Datadog and start with a concise, maintainable configuration.

Prerequisites

1. Configure the PagerDuty integration in Datadog.
2. Create a PagerDuty API key, if you don’t have one already, that can read PagerDuty assets like schedules, escalation policies, and teams.
3. Confirm your user has on_call_write and teams_manage permissions.

Migration steps

Select team to migrate

1. Visit the On-Call Teams list and select Add Team to On‑Call > Import team from PagerDuty. Datadog loads all your teams from PagerDuty.
2. Pick the team to migrate and choose Next. A preview pane shows the team’s members and settings.

Map the team and its members

1. Select one of the following options:

   • Map with another Datadog team: Choose the appropriate Datadog team from the list.

   • Create a new team: Enter a team name when prompted. Datadog builds the team using the structure and members from your PagerDuty team.

2. Handle unmapped users:

   Datadog matches users by email address. For unmapped users you can:

   • Invite them to Datadog (the UI sends an email invitation), or
   • Skip them if they no longer need access.

3. When the mapping looks correct, select Import team.

Configure routing rules

Choose a template to define how alerts reach the team:

• All alerts to escalation policy: forward every alert to a designated escalation policy.
• Business hours: send alerts to the team only during specified hours and use chat channels as fallbacks.
• Alert priority: route alerts based on their priority and impact.
• Start from scratch: customize routing rules to fit your team’s workflows.

Reuse escalation policies and schedules

When you edit routing rules, you can import existing PagerDuty escalation policies and schedules instead of recreating them.

Datadog will automatically apply the imported configurations. You can change the policies and schedules at any time.
