# SOP: Perry Weather Integration
## Eligibility, intake, and setup steps for enabling Perry Weather alerts on Sitemetric sites
📋 Use this SOP when a customer (or CSM on their behalf) wants Perry Weather alerts enabled for one or more sites. Customer must be on the **Mass Texting** package — Perry alerts are included there and not sold standalone.
> **TL;DR** 1. Confirm eligibility (Mass Texting + active Perry account). 2. Collect intake fields below for each site. 3. Hand off to Product/Eng with the go-live date.
---
## Intake Fields (per site)
Send the customer the intake form: [\*\*https://us.sitemetric.com/forms/03FBFDWJYR\*\*](https://us.sitemetric.com/forms/03FBFDWJYR)
Or collect manually:
- **Perry `location_id`** — Required: ✅; Notes: If unknown, email Perry Weather and CC the customer
- **Sitemetric site name** — Required: ✅; Notes: We can look up the site ID internally
- **Who receives alerts** — Required: ✅; Notes: All workers onsite (default) or named distribution list
- **Distribution list name** — Required: If named list; Notes: Confirm it exists before handoff
- **Detected window hours** — Required: ✅ (default: 4); Notes: How far back to check for onsite workers — whole number, 1–24
- **Alert scope** — Required: ✅; Notes: DELAY only, or DELAY + ALL\_CLEAR
- **Send window** — Required: Optional; Notes: Daily window during which alerts are sent; alerts received outside it are suppressed (no SMS queued or sent). Default: send at all times. Times are in the site's local timezone. One window per day; overnight windows supported (e.g., 10:00 PM–6:00 AM)
- **Preferred go-live date** — Required: ✅
> ℹ️ **Supported event types:** Perry Weather handles event-type logic on their end and sends Sitemetric the message to deliver. Any event types the customer has configured in their Perry Weather account will be sent automatically — no manual trigger option.
- Multi-site / campus note
One Perry station can map to multiple Sitemetric sites. Capture the `location_id` once and list every site it should cover.
---
## Internal Checklist
### CX
- Eligibility confirmed (Mass Texting + active Perry account)
- Customer sent the intake form and submission received
- If using a named distribution list, confirm it exists
- Follow up with **Mike Spector** in **#dev-integrations-perry-weather** — form responses post there automatically
### Dev
- Map `location_id` → Sitemetric site ID(s)
- Apply recipient method + detected window hours per site
- Apply send window if requested (site local timezone; alerts outside the window are suppressed)
- Notify CS when integration is live + which sites are covered
---
## FAQ
- **"Is this a paid feature?"**
No standalone charge. Included in the **Mass Texting** package.
- **"Can the Perry data replace the weather shown in the Sitemetric app?"**
Not today. Current integration handles alerts only. An enhanced version is on the roadmap as a paid add-on (pending finalization).
- **"We have multiple sites on one campus and only one weather station — does that work?"**
Yes. One Perry station can map to multiple Sitemetric sites.
- **"How do I get my Perry \`location\_id\`?"**
From the customer's Perry account manager. If they don't know who to contact, Sitemetric can loop in Perry directly — known contacts:
- Corby Pardue — [corby@perryweather.com](mailto:corby@perryweather.com)
- Blake Harvey — [blake@perryweather.com](mailto:blake@perryweather.com)
- Daniel Hodges — [dhodges@perryweather.com](mailto:dhodges@perryweather.com)
- **"Can we customize which event types trigger alerts?"**
Event types are configured on the Perry Weather side. Any events the customer has enabled in their Perry account will be delivered through Sitemetric automatically.
- **"Can alerts be limited to certain hours of the day?"**
Yes. An optional per-site send window can be configured. Alerts received outside the window are suppressed entirely — no SMS is queued or sent. Times are in the site's local timezone, one window per day, and overnight windows are supported (e.g., 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM). By default, alerts are sent at all times.

## Perry Weather — Admin Reference
For customers or internal staff needing to verify the integration status from the Perry Weather side:
**Policies Page**
Navigate to the Policies page in Perry Weather. Each active policy will show a Webhooks field with "Sitemetric" selected. This confirms which alert types are routed to Sitemetric. Currently, all active policies are enabled for the Sitemetric integration — Lightning, Wind Speed, and NWS Alerts. (Note: Sitemetric delivers any event type Perry sends — event configuration is managed on the Perry Weather side.)
**Integrations Page**
Navigate to **Perry Weather APIs → Manage Configuration → Webhooks tab** to view the active Sitemetric integration.
**Testing the Integration**
Perry Weather can fire a test policy alert on their end to verify the integration end-to-end. Note that the test mimics a real alert — it will appear as an actual lightning alert coming through on Sitemetric's side. Coordinate timing with the customer before requesting a test. Contact Skyler Bunting ([skyler@perryweather.com](mailto:skyler@perryweather.com)) or Blake Harvey ([blake@perryweather.com](mailto:blake@perryweather.com)) to initiate.
