Setting an Alert to Send an Email

  • Last updated on

You can set an alert to email you when a condition is met. The alert email sent to users includes information such as:

  • Alert type
  • Alert severity
  • Details of the alert
  • Ticket details, if configured
  • Remedial steps, if configured
  • Links to knowledgebase articles with more information, if configured

In most cases, the alert email also includes buttons that initiate suggested actions to correct the problem.

Users set to receive emails must have the receive alert notifications permission in an assigned role. See Setting the Objects a User Account Can Access and Setting User Account Options.
