Monitor your time series data and send alerts by creating checks, notification
|
|
rules, and notification endpoints. Or use [community templates to monitor](/influxdb/v2.0/monitor-alert/templates/) supported environments.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
1. A [check](/influxdb/v2.0/reference/glossary/#check) in InfluxDB queries data and assigns a status with a `_level` based on specific conditions.
|
|
2. InfluxDB stores the output of a check in the `statuses` measurement in the `_monitoring` system bucket.
|
|
3. [Notification rules](/influxdb/v2.0/reference/glossary/#notification-rule) check data in the `statuses`
|
|
measurement and, based on conditions set in the notification rule, send a message
|
|
to a [notification endpoint](/influxdb/v2.0/reference/glossary/#notification-endpoint).
|
|
4. InfluxDB stores notifications in the `notifications` measurement in the `_monitoring` system bucket.
|
|
|
|
## Create an alert
|
|
|
|
To get started, do the following:
|
|
|
|
1. [Create checks](/influxdb/v2.0/monitor-alert/checks/create/) to monitor data and assign a status.
|
|
2. [Add notification endpoints](/influxdb/v2.0/monitor-alert/notification-endpoints/create/)
|
|
to send notifications to third parties.
|
|
3. [Create notification rules](/influxdb/v2.0/monitor-alert/notification-rules/create) to check
|
|
statuses and send notifications to your notifications endpoints.
|
|
|
