Pagerduty email verification with BillionVerify
PagerDuty is an incident management and alerting platform used by operations and engineering teams. When PagerDuty incidents or on-call schedules involve email-based notifications or user provisioning, BillionVerify ensures the contact addresses on file are valid and deliverable before critical alerts are sent.
Why verify before the send
A bad email address in an on-call schedule means an engineer misses a critical alert. BillionVerify validates responder and stakeholder email addresses so your incident notifications reliably reach the right people, and so user provisioning workflows do not create records with undeliverable contacts.
Ready-to-use n8n workflow
Import this workflow into n8n — it verifies every address with BillionVerify before Pagerduty sends, so only deliverable contacts are emailed. Install the BillionVerify community node first, then add your API key. Adapted from this n8n template

How it works
- 1
A new user is provisioned or a stakeholder list is updated in PagerDuty via your identity or HR workflow.
- 2
An n8n automation or Integrately integration extracts the contact email and sends it to BillionVerify.
- 3
BillionVerify checks the address for syntax errors, domain validity, MX records, and SMTP reachability.
- 4
Invalid addresses trigger a notification to the provisioning team to correct the record before it goes live.
- 5
Only verified email addresses are confirmed in PagerDuty, ensuring alerts reach real inboxes.
When to use this
Validate On-Call Responder Emails During Provisioning
When new team members are added to PagerDuty through your HR or identity management automation, BillionVerify verifies their email before the account is activated. Typos are caught before they cause missed alerts during an incident.
Keep Stakeholder Notification Lists Clean
PagerDuty can notify stakeholder groups via email during major incidents. BillionVerify validates those contact lists so stale or invalid addresses are removed before a high-severity event demands reliable delivery.
FAQ
Can BillionVerify be triggered automatically when a new PagerDuty user is created?
Yes. Use PagerDuty's webhook events or an n8n trigger to detect new user creation, then pass the email to BillionVerify's API automatically as part of your provisioning pipeline.
What happens if an on-call engineer's email is flagged as invalid?
Your automation can pause the provisioning step and alert an admin to correct the email address before the user is activated, preventing a gap in on-call coverage.
Is BillionVerify useful for existing PagerDuty user lists, or only new signups?
Both. Export your existing user list, run bulk verification through BillionVerify's API, and flag stale addresses — useful before large-scale schedule changes or annual roster audits.
