Get phone and SMS alerts fromOh Dear
Oh Dear raises the alarm — Spike.sh makes sure a human hears it. Every Oh Dear alert becomes an incident with on-call schedules, escalations, and alerts on phone, SMS, Slack, email, WhatsApp, and Teams.
Set up with AI
I use Oh Dear for monitoring and Spike.sh for on-call and incident management. Walk me through connecting them: create a Oh Dear integration in Spike.sh, copy its webhook URL, and add that webhook to Oh Dear alert settings. Then help me send a test alert to confirm incidents show up in Spike.sh.
What is Oh Dear?
Oh Dear keeps watch over your systems and raises an alert the moment something goes wrong — a failed check, an error spike, a service that stops responding.
Connected to Spike.sh, those alerts become incidents: the right on-call person gets a phone call and SMS within seconds, similar incidents are grouped to cut the noise, and everything is tracked until it is resolved.
How to set up Oh Dear alerts
Every Spike.sh integration is a unique webhook URL. Paste it into Oh Dear and alerts start flowing — no agents, no code.
Step 1: Create a Oh Dear integration in Spike.sh
In your Spike.sh dashboard, open Integrations and choose Oh Dear. Spike.sh generates a unique webhook URL for this integration — copy it.
Step 2: Add the webhook in Oh Dear
Open the alert or notification settings in Oh Dear, add a webhook endpoint, and paste your Spike.sh webhook URL.
Step 3: Send a test alert
Trigger a test from Oh Dear. The alert lands in Spike.sh as an incident and your on-call team is alerted immediately.
That's it — Oh Dear alerts now page whoever is on call.
