Configure notification message

Use annotations to add information to alert messages that can help respond to the alert.

Annotations are included by default in notification messages, and can use text or templates to display dynamic data from queries.

Grafana provides several optional annotations.

  1. Optional: Add a summary.

    Short summary of what happened and why.

  2. Optional: Add a description.

    Description of what the alert rule does.

  3. Optional: Add a Runbook URL.

    Webpage where you keep your runbook for the alert

  4. Optional: Add a custom annotation.

    Add any additional information that could help address the alert.

  5. Optional: Link dashboard and panel.

    Link the alert rule to a panel to facilitate alert investigation.

  6. Click Save rule.
