AI agents call pagerduty_get_incident to retrieve information from UnClick without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
api_key | string | Yes | PagerDuty API key |
incident_id | string | Yes | Incident ID |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This is a read-only operation that queries incident data from PagerDuty. However, incident details may contain sensitive operational information (status, responders, timestamps, impact scope), making misuse moderately risky if an agent accesses incidents it shouldn't. This justifies medium severity rather than low, as PagerDuty incidents often involve critical infrastructure and sensitive escalation chains.
