Alert Notifications

The Anapaya CONSOLE can notify you when alert rules fire. Notifications are sent to contact points — each contact point defines a delivery channel (email or webhook) and controls which alerts trigger it.

Managing Contact Points

Navigate to contact points to list, create, edit, and delete contact points.

After creating or editing a contact point, use the Test button to send a test notification and verify the configuration.

Email

Provide one or more recipient email addresses. You can also enable Send resolved notifications to receive a follow-up message when an alert clears.

Field	Description
Addresses	One or more email addresses to notify.
Send resolved notifications	Also notify when the alert resolves.

Webhook

Send an HTTP request to any endpoint that accepts the Grafana AlertManager webhook payload. See the Grafana webhook notifier documentation for the exact payload format.

Field	Description
Send resolved notifications	Also notify when the alert resolves.
URL	The endpoint to send the request to.
HTTP method	POST or PUT.
Basic auth	Optional username and password for HTTP Basic authentication.
Authorization header	Optional authorization scheme and credentials sent as the Authorization header.

Alert Profile

The profile controls which alerts are delivered to a contact point.

Profile	Description
All	Receive notifications for all alert types.
Observer	Receive notifications for observer and service-status alerts only.

Examples

Slack via email

The easiest way to post alerts into a Slack channel is to use the channel's email address. Slack can generate a dedicated email address for any channel via the Email app.

1. In Slack, open the channel you want to receive alerts in.
2. Click the channel name → Integrations → Send emails to this channel.
3. Copy the generated email address.
4. In CONSOLE, create an email contact point and paste the address into the Addresses field.

Alert notifications will appear in the Slack channel as email messages.
