How do I connect incident metrics with incident sla?

Howdy y’all,

 

I’m a fire analyst, not an IT guy, so bear with me while I try to make heads or tails of this data mess. I’ve got a metrics table (incident_metric) that tracks who’s working on incidents, and two SLA tables (incident_sla and u_all_task_sla) that’s got timestamps and some long 16-digit IDs—but no names.  Below is incident 61:

Here’s what I know:

  • We use IT’s ticket system to keep up with all kinds of things—hydrants, computers, and whatever else needs fixin’.
  • Susan was assigned to a ticket, then passed it over to Jane.

  • When Susan assigned it to Jane, the first resolution SLA closed.

  • Then Jane resolved the incident, triggering a second resolution SLA.

The problem is, my SLA table doesn’t have people—just timestamps and those long IDs (called sla_sys_id). So how in the world do I connect these two tables to see who was responsible for each SLA event?

I appreciate any wisdom y’all can share. I may know how to put out fires, but this data is burning me up!

Thanks in advance!

AndersBGS, So based on what you told me, the challenge is that when an SLA changes, I don’t rightly know who’s actually responsible for the ticket. In my mind, every change to a ticket oughta have documentation showing a single person or resource that made that change. But in the SLA timeline and other places, I just see “updated by.” I don’t see that info anywhere in the API SLA tables.
