Setting Up Criticality Levels

The default criticality levels may not be sufficient to describe all possible incidents, so there is an option to set your own settings for a specific criticality level or add a new one.

To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Menu - System Settings - Developer Console.
  2. Enter the following in the console:
    GET .sm_settings/_search
    {
    "query": {
    "match": {
    "_meta.id": "incident-manager-settings"
    }
    }
    }

As a result, the Incident Manager settings document will be displayed:

  1. Copy the _id of the index displayed in the query results.
  2. Copy the entire _source body and create a PUT request to modify the settings. The criticality level settings are located under this key - editFields.severity.values:
PUT .sm_settings/_doc/<copied _id value>
<...>
"editFields": {
"severity": {
"runame": "Criticality",
"multiedit": true,
"values": [
{
"color": "#DC4E41",
"textRu": "Alarm",
"text": "Alarm",
"value": "3"
},
{
"color": "#F8BE32",
"textRu": "Warning",
"text": "Warning",
"value": "2"
},
{
"color": "#65A637",
"textRu": "Normal",
"text": "Normal",
"value": "1"
},
{
"color": "#6092C0",
"textRu": "Information",
"text": "Information",
"value": "4"
},
{
"color": "<Color>",
"textRu": "<Name>",
"text": "<Name>",
"value": "<Order Number>"
}
]
<...>
}
}
  1. Execute the request with the new parameters.

Now, a new criticality level with the specified name and color will appear in the Incident Manager.
