Sending a test page

Hi! In paging software I’ve worked with in the past, I was able to send a page directly to another user, which would alarm on their device until they acknowledged the page (effectively a full test of the paging mechanism). How can I do this with PagerDuty? I tried creating an “Incident” and assigning it to myself, but PagerDuty auto-acknowledges the incident. I tried the “send test feature”, but I only received a ping from this, not an actual page. Thank you for your help!

    Hi,

    I was looking for the same thing and just found that if you’re using the Events API V2, then you can got to the “integrations” tab of your service, then expand the “Events API V2” section to get a curl command to generate a test incident.
