Email

Create and update incidents by sending emails to Runframe.

How it works

Email sent → Runframe receives → Incident created or updated

Send an email to your Runframe forwarding address and it becomes an incident. Reply to a notification email and your message gets added to that incident's timeline.

No webhooks, no API keys.


Who can send emails

SenderSetup required
Any active user in your Runframe organizationNone, works by default
One authorized external email (e.g. support@yourcompany.com)Enable in Settings > Email

Emails from unrecognized senders are silently ignored.


Configure email intake

  1. Go to Settings > Email
  2. Copy the forwarding email address shown on the page
  3. To route incidents to a specific service and trigger on-call, enable "Create incidents from email" and select a service
  4. To allow a non-user email address to create and update incidents, add it as the authorized sender email

Service linking is optional but recommended. Without it, email-created incidents are unassigned. With a linked service, incidents go to the right team and trigger on-call automatically.


Field mapping

Email fieldRunframe field
SubjectIncident title (Re: and Fwd: prefixes are stripped)
BodyIncident description (up to 2,000 characters)
SenderCreator (matched to org user or authorized email)

Replying to incidents

Runframe notification emails include the incident number in the subject (e.g. [INC-1234]). Reply to one and your message is added to the incident timeline as a comment.

This works for all organization users by default. You can disable it in Settings > Email.
