Quick Fixes


If It Refuses a Request

Refusals are usually deliberate scope, not failures. Rootly AI’s native tools do not touch production systems, page through third-party vendors, write code, or change external platform configuration. A connector can expose separately governed external actions; see its connector guide for the exact tools and permissions. The full list of native limits lives at What Rootly AI Can’t Do.

Good to Know

  • Times render in your team’s time zone. Ask for UTC, your own time zone, or any IANA zone and Rootly AI converts.
  • Rootly AI in Web is read-only by design; Rootly-native write actions live in Slack incident channels and mobile, while supported connector actions follow their own surface and permission rules.
  • Rootly AI on Mobile takes incident updates such as status and severity, confirming with you before anything runs. Paging and status page publishing stay in Slack.
  • If your role recently changed, sign out of Slack and back in so Rootly AI picks up your current identity.
  • Tenant isolation is enforced by design. Rootly AI never surfaces incidents from teams you don’t belong to.
