Alerts and notifications
How alert rules, active alerts, and notifications work in ActionWatch.
Alert rules vs. active alerts #
- Alert rules define the conditions ActionWatch monitors.
- Active alerts are the rules that currently match a problem.
What users can do #
Depending on your permissions, you can review and acknowledge alerts, mute an alert rule, or resolve an alert after investigating the problem.
Who sees what #
Alert visibility follows account and repository access in ActionWatch. Team members see alerts for the CI data they can access. Operator tools are separate.
Notifications #
Browser and in-app notifications tell you about new alert activity. If you miss a notification, open ActionWatch to check the alert's current status.
