Show On Call User in AboutCard on Backstage

I’m using the pagerduty plugin in backstage and would like to add a section in the AboutCard for entities that just shows the person who is currently on call. I’ve tried using the PagerDutyEntitySmallCard, but it’s still a bit too big for me. Is there a way I could perhaps directly call the PagerDuty Api and get this information to give to the AboutCard? Or is there an easier way to go about this?

Hi @luna.a , I’ve not worked with the Backstage plugin in this depth, but you can certainly query the PagerDuty API and the on calls endpoint, to get details of who is currently on call for all or particular Schedule/EP id’s.
