This is a test alert. We send these periodically to make sure all is well with the notification channels.
Affected: —
We will notify you when an incident is opened, updated, or resolved — and for nothing else.
We'll POST a signed JSON payload to your endpoint whenever an incident opens, updates, or resolves — handy for piping status into Slack, PagerDuty, or your own tooling.
Every delivery is signed with HMAC-SHA256 in the X-Nametag-Status-Signature header. You'll get your signing secret once, on the next screen — so keep it somewhere safe.
