View alerts

You can get a quick overview of alerts, and if they are in compliance or not, from the Alerts page. Open the Alerts page by clicking Alerts from the navigation bar.

By default, the Alerts view lists all alerts by their status, with those in violation at the top. Alerts can have the following statuses:

  • Red/Critical: The alert is in violation of the Critical threshold.

  • Green/OK: The alert is active and is currently in a non-triggered state. All inbound traffic is being analyzed against the criteria you have set over the defined evaluation window.
  • Light gray/Unknown: The alert has been created but it’s not yet in an active monitoring state. If the alert remains grey after a few minutes, try refreshing your browser window to fetch the most up-to-date alert state.
  • Dark gray/No data: There is no metric data reporting for this query.
  • Grayed out: The alert is active, but is currently in a snoozed state. This means that ingested traffic is being analyzed against the criteria defined in the alert, but alerts will not be generated if a threshold is breached.

You can filter alerts by name, status, date, or alert type.

Click on an alert to open it, view the associated data, edit it, and snooze it.
