Keyboard shortcuts

During an incident you don't want to reach for the mouse. The admin console ships a keybar on the alerts pages and a command palette that works anywhere — here's the full set.

OpsPing Admin alerts list with the floating keybar showing J K navigate, A ack, E close, S snooze, X select, and slash search
The alerts list with its keybar (bottom). The same hints appear on the alert detail page. Press a key to act on the focused or selected alert.

EscClose any open dialog, modal, or the command palette.

Alert detail

Tip

The keybar is always visible on the alerts pages, so you never have to memorize these — the hint for each action sits right there. Start with J/K to move and A to ack; the rest follows naturally.
