Opsgenie Alert Tagging

Opsgenie Alert Tagging updates Opgenies alerts with their relevant tags based on the time and date each alert was created at.

This was a manual process which required a human to type in relevant tags within the UI of each alert. This has been created to automate this process. Future iterations of this will ensure that the program will run daily via a Github action.

Getting started

$ git clone [email protected]:dxw/opsgenie-alert-tagging.git

$ bundle exec rspec
