Configuring alerts and notifications for core platform monitoring

You can configure a local or external Alertmanager instance to route alerts from Prometheus to endpoint receivers. You can also attach custom labels to all time series and alerts to add useful metadata information.

Configuring alert notifications

In {product-title} {product-version}, you can view firing alerts in the Alerting UI. You can configure Alertmanager to send notifications about default platform alerts by configuring alert receivers.

Important

Alertmanager does not send notifications by default. It is strongly recommended to configure Alertmanager to receive notifications by configuring alert receivers through the web console or through the alertmanager-main secret.
