End of Life for Event Rules Coming January 2025
The End of Life for Event Rules will happen on January 31, 2025. You can continue to use and edit your Event Rules in the UI as usual until the EOL date. Starting February 1, 2025, Event Rules will be available via API only. If you’re currently using Event Rules, you will receive an email about potential migration paths. Otherwise, no action is required. To get the most value out of PagerDuty's event-driven automation offering, we recommend migrating to Event Orchestration.
