Opsgenie Alert Does Not Close After a Sentry Issue Resolves

Troubleshoot Opsgenie alerts that remain open after the related Sentry issue resolves, including how priority and de-escalation conditions affect resolution updates.

If an Opsgenie alert remains open after the related Sentry issue resolves, review the conditions applied to the Opsgenie action.

Conditions based only on the issue’s current priority may stop matching after the priority decreases. This can prevent de-escalation or resolution updates from being sent to Opsgenie.

Depending on the intended alert behavior, consider including The issue priority de-escalates in the Opsgenie action logic.

Use an any condition group when the action should run either when the issue reaches the configured priority or when its priority de-escalates.

Example configuration

  • If all conditions match:

    • Current issue priority is greater than or equal to medium

    • Send a Slack notification

  • If any condition matches:

    • Current issue priority is greater than or equal to high

    • The issue priority de-escalates

    • Send an Opsgenie notification

In this example, Slack is notified at medium or high priority, while Opsgenie is notified at high priority and can also receive later de-escalation and resolution updates.
