xMatters Support - Dynamic Groups

Dynamic groups are teams of users based on selected criteria. A dynamic group's members change depending on who matches the selected criteria at the time of an alert. For example, you can create a dynamic group that includes all users who have specific training (such as first aid or fire safety) in a particular physical location within your organization. You could base this on a custom user property that indicates the level of training each user has. As each user gains a certification, the group is updated to reflect that change.

There’s nothing better than a smoothly run operation but life is full of unexpected surprises. When things don’t go to plan, and help is urgently needed, no time can be wasted. Getting a message to a resolver on time is just as important as having a resolver to call in the first place! And letting people know that help is on the way is especially important to keep the situation calm until they arrive.

Callable Flows - xMatters Support

In xMatters Flow Designer, you can use callable flows to initiate a major incident process in any workflow. Instead of including the same sequence of steps in each workflow, such as posting to a status page or opening a help desk ticket, you can build the sequence once as a separate workflow and then include that as a step in any of your workflows.
