How to make an Update from an Incident

Use incident updates to share new findings, mitigation steps, or final resolution—all without creating a separate incident.

Steps to Update an Incident:

  1. Open Incidents in the sidebar and click the incident you want to update ("Edit" button)

  2. Click ➕ Add Update or Mark as Resolved in the incident timeline.

  1. Resolution Stage – pick the current phase.

  2. Update Description – enter a concise message (supports Markdown). Examples:

“We’ve rolled back the faulty release; monitoring recovery.”

  1. (Optional) Adjust Severity if impact has changed.

  2. Hit Update Incident to conclude this step.

Choose Resolved only when:

  • All user impact has stopped.

  • Fix is deployed and verified.

  • You’re ready to close subscriber alerts.

A “resolved” update automatically sets the service status back to OK.
