# Fireflies.ai Incident Runbook
## Overview
Rapid incident response procedures for Fireflies.ai-related outages.
## Prerequisites
- Access to Fireflies.ai dashboard and status page
- kubectl access to production cluster
- Prometheus/Grafana access
- Communication channels (Slack, PagerDuty)
## Severity Levels
| Level | Definition | Response Time | Examples |
|-------|------------|---------------|----------|
| P1 | Complete outage | < 15 min | Fireflies.ai API unreachable |
| P2 | Degraded service | < 1 hour | High latency, partial failures |
| P3 | Minor impact | < 4 hours | Webhook delays, non-critical errors |
| P4 | No user impact | Next business day | Monitoring gaps |
## Quick Triage
```bash
# 1. Check Fireflies.ai status
curl -s https://status.fireflies.com | jq
# 2. Check our integration health
curl -s https://api.yourapp.com/health | jq '.services.fireflies'
# 3. Check error rate (last 5 min)
curl -s localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=rate(fireflies_errors_total[5m])
# 4. Recent error logs
kubectl logs -l app=fireflies-integration --since=5m | grep -i error | tail -20
```
## Decision Tree
```
Fireflies.ai API returning errors?
├─ YES: Is status.fireflies.com showing incident?
│ ├─ YES → Wait for Fireflies.ai to resolve. Enable fallback.
│ └─ NO → Our integration issue. Check credentials, config.
└─ NO: Is our service healthy?
├─ YES → Likely resolved or intermittent. Monitor.
└─ NO → Our infrastructure issue. Check pods, memory, network.
```
## Immediate Actions by Error Type
### 401/403 - Authentication
```bash
# Verify API key is set
kubectl get secret fireflies-secrets -o jsonpath='{.data.api-key}' | base64 -d
# Check if key was rotated
# → Verify in Fireflies.ai dashboard
# Remediation: Update secret and restart pods
kubectl create secret generic fireflies-secrets --from-literal=api-key=NEW_KEY --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
kubectl rollout restart deployment/fireflies-integration
```
### 429 - Rate Limited
```bash
# Check rate limit headers
curl -v https://api.fireflies.com 2>&1 | grep -i rate
# Enable request queuing
kubectl set env deployment/fireflies-integration RATE_LIMIT_MODE=queue
# Long-term: Contact Fireflies.ai for limit increase
```
### 500/503 - Fireflies.ai Errors
```bash
# Enable graceful degradation
kubectl set env deployment/fireflies-integration FIREFLIES_FALLBACK=true
# Notify users of degraded service
# Update status page
# Monitor Fireflies.ai status for resolution
```
## Communication Templates
### Internal (Slack)
```
🔴 P1 INCIDENT: Fireflies.ai Integration
Status: INVESTIGATING
Impact: [Describe user impact]
Current action: [What you're doing]
Next update: [Time]
Incident commander: @[name]
```
### External (Status Page)
```
Fireflies.ai Integration Issue
We're experiencing issues with our Fireflies.ai integration.
Some users may experience [specific impact].
We're actively investigating and will provide updates.
Last updated: [timestamp]
```
## Post-Incident
### Evidence Collection
```bash
# Generate debug bundle
./scripts/fireflies-debug-bundle.sh
# Export relevant logs
kubectl logs -l app=fireflies-integration --since=1h > incident-logs.txt
# Capture metrics
curl "localhost:9090/api/v1/query_range?query=fireflies_errors_total&start=2h" > metrics.json
```
### Postmortem Template
```markdown
## Incident: Fireflies.ai [Error Type]
**Date:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Duration:** X hours Y minutes
**Severity:** P[1-4]
### Summary
[1-2 sentence description]
### Timeline
- HH:MM - [Event]
- HH:MM - [Event]
### Root Cause
[Technical explanation]
### Impact
- Users affected: N
- Revenue impact: $X
### Action Items
- [ ] [Preventive measure] - Owner - Due date
```
## Instructions
### Step 1: Quick Triage
Run the triage commands to identify the issue source.
### Step 2: Follow Decision Tree
Determine if the issue is Fireflies.ai-side or internal.
### Step 3: Execute Immediate Actions
Apply the appropriate remediation for the error type.
### Step 4: Communicate Status
Update internal and external stakeholders.
## Output
- Issue identified and categorized
- Remediation applied
- Stakeholders notified
- Evidence collected for postmortem
## Error Handling
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Can't reach status page | Network issue | Use mobile or VPN |
| kubectl fails | Auth expired | Re-authenticate |
| Metrics unavailable | Prometheus down | Check backup metrics |
| Secret rotation fails | Permission denied | Escalate to admin |
## Examples
### One-Line Health Check
```bash
curl -sf https://api.yourapp.com/health | jq '.services.fireflies.status' || echo "UNHEALTHY"
```
