Body
Whether the status should be considered 'live' (now renamed to active), 'learning' (now renamed to post-incident) or 'closed'. The triage and declined statuses cannot be created or modified.
live, learning, closed "live"
Rich text description of the incident status
"Impact has been **fully mitigated**, and we're ready to learn from this incident."
Unique name of this status
"Closed"
Where this status sits within its category, lowest rank first. No two statuses in the same category can share a rank, but ranks needn't run consecutively — leaving gaps (10, 20, 30) means you can later insert a status between two others without renumbering them. Omit it to add this status to the end of its category.
