Alerts help you monitor your data. You can configure alerts on targets to track measurements, then set up Notification Groups to receive email or SMS alerts when thresholds are exceeded.
Accessing Alerts
From the Explorer, select a chart that already has a target, or add a target to a new or existing chart.
Configure Alert
Follow these steps to configure an alert on your target.
- Click the three dots menu on the target and select Alert.
- Choose which measurements should trigger the alert.
- Define the alert conditions:
- Target Ranges - Alert when the value is above, below, or outside the target.
- Thresholds - Alert when values are above or below the threshold.
- Optional: Add a custom message to include with your alert notification.
- Optional: Set alert throttling to control how frequently alerts are sent.
- Choose an existing Notification Group or select Create Group to set up a new one.
- Click Save to activate your alert.
Disable Alert
Follow these steps to temporarily disable an alert without deleting it.
- Click the three dots menu on the target and select Alert.
- Toggle the Disable switch to the on position.
- Click Save to apply the change.
Create Notification Groups
Notification Groups allow you to organize who receives alerts and how they are delivered:
- Click Create Group.
- Enter a clear name for the group that identifies its purpose.
- Add the team members who should receive notifications for this group.
- Click Manage Notifications to choose whether members receive alerts via SMS, Email, or both.
- Click Create to save your notification group.
Manage Notification Groups
You can modify existing notification groups after they have been created:
- Once a group is assigned to an alert, click on the group name or select the three dots menu and choose Manage.
- Add new members to the group or remove existing ones as your team changes.
- Click Manage Notifications to update notification preferences, switching between SMS and Email delivery options for each member.
