Graylog Integration Guide

Graylog is a leading centralized log management solution built to open standards for capturing, storing, and enabling real-time analysis of terabytes of machine.

What can Xurrent IMR do for Graylog users?

With the Graylog Integration, Xurrent IMR sends new Gralog conditional alerts to the right team and notifies them based on on-call schedules via email, text messages(SMS), phone calls(Voice), Slack, Microsoft Teams and iOS & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed. Xurrent IMR provides your application engineers with detailed context around the Graylog alert along with playbooks and a complete incident command framework to triage and remediate and resolve incidents with speed.

Whenever a condition on Graylog is met, Xurrent IMR will create an incident.

You can also use Alert Rules to custom route specific Graylog alerts to specific users, teams or escalation policies, write suppression rules, auto add notes, responders and incident tasks.
