# Create or update incident trigger subscription

> Create or update an incident trigger subscription for AI SRE automation.

## Restrictions

| Aspect      | Value                                                         |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Rate limits | **1,000 requests/minute**; **50 requests/second** per account |
| Permissions | None — any valid `app_key` can call this operation            |

## Usage

* Use this when an AI SRE automation rule needs to receive new-incident trigger events from selected On-call channels.
* `source`, `consumer`, and `consumer_ref` identify the subscription. Omitting `subscription_id` upserts the row for that tuple.
* Only `Critical`, `Warning`, and `Info` severities are valid; `enabled` defaults to true.
* Every call is recorded in the account audit log. Don't put secrets in request fields.

  description: >-
    Public HTTP API for the Flashduty incident management platform — incidents,
    notification templates, channels, schedules, monitors, RUM, and platform
    administration. Every operation is authenticated with an `app_key` query
    parameter issued from the Flashduty console under Account → APP Keys.
    Responses follow a uniform envelope: `{ request_id, data }` on success, `{
    request_id, error }` on failure.
