Minimum configuration

When creating the first alert you will be guided through configuring everything necessary for alerting to be enabled. Overall, the minimum general configuration needed is:

  • Configure an integration for sending notifications in Integrations configuration.
    • For Slack, make sure you invite the @bitdrift Slack app into the channel(s) you want to send the notification to.
    • For PagerDuty, add the Routing Key from your PagerDuty service (Enterprise plans only).
    • For AWS SNS, add the ARN of your SNS topic and configure the required IAM policy (Enterprise plans only).
  • Configure a notification group that defines where notifications will be sent. A notification group can include any combination of Slack channels, PagerDuty services, and SNS topics.
  • When creating an alert (by selecting Create alert in the top right of any chart in any workflow) select the desired setting and a notification group created earlier.
