Example response:

Acknowledge an incident

Acknowledge an incident as the API key's user. The first acknowledgement cancels any escalation still waiting to page more people, and makes that person the incident lead if there is none. Nothing changes on the status page. Acknowledging again is safe: alreadyAcknowledged is then true.

Endpoint:

POST /v1/:page_id/incidents/:incident_id/acknowledge

Example response:

{
  "incidentId": "ckf02l5m8z36j0a35qr9q1tq1",
  "alreadyAcknowledged": false,
  "paged": true,
  "acknowledged": true,
  "lead": {
    "teamMemberId": "clh8nmaan72592bfokqjqd95s1",
    "name": "Sam Rivera",
    "email": "sam@example.com"
  },

      "pagedAt": "2026-11-01T12:01:00.000Z"
