Examples and common scenarios for action policies in the experimental alerting system

This page covers common situations you encounter when setting up action policies in the experimental alerting system and explains how to configure them to get the behavior you expect.

• Route alert episodes by severity describes how to direct critical and non-critical alert episodes to different workflows based on severity level.
• Manage severity escalation notifications explains how action policies match and re-match alert episodes as severity shifts, and how to control which notifications fire.
• Re-notify for persistently active alert episodes covers how to configure action policies so a workflow sends follow-up notifications when an alert episode stays active without a status change.
