Creating a New Alarm​

• Get access to the Integrator panel. Follow the Monitoring sidebar and click on the Alarms page.

  
• Click on the Create New Alarm button located in the upper-right corner.

  
• In the opened form, fill in the following fields:

  • Flow Name: Select the flow for which you want to receive alarms.

  • Alarm Name: Provide a descriptive name for the alarm.

  • Set Alarm Condition: Define the condition under which the alarm will trigger and users will receive notifications.

    Alarm conditions define when an alarm will be triggered based on specific criteria. For instance, an alarm might trigger when a certain error rate is exceeded. In the image below, the given condition for the alarm is that it will be triggered if the error rates of all executions running in the last 12 hours exceed 80%. Customize alarm rules according to your system's requirements.

    
  • Users: Add email addresses of recipients who should receive mail notifications. Multiple recipients can be added by using the (+) button.

• After defining all parameters, click the Save button to create the alarm.

  

Managing Alarms​

Alarm List: View, edit, and delete all created alarms in the Alarm List page.

Alarm History: Check the status records of triggered alarms in the Alarm History page.

When an alarm is triggered, email notifications are automatically sent to the recipients added during alarm creation. Use the Notification Detail column's popup to track which recipients received notifications and when.

The Execution IDs that caused the relevant alarm condition can be viewed by clicking on the Flow Name, which will open a popup.

To mark an alarm as resolved, click the Resolve button. Resolved alarms will send notifications again if triggered, helping you identify and address recurring issues.

By following these steps, you can effectively use the Integrator Alarm Service and monitor critical situations in your system.
