Creating Alerts with Natural Language
Describe alert conditions in plain English and let AI configure them.
How It Works
On the Alerts page, you'll see a text input at the top. Type a description in plain English:
- "Alert me if checkout errors spike"
- "Notify when payment service has more than 10 errors in 5 minutes"
- "Warn me if no logs from api-gateway for 15 minutes"
- "Alert if error rate exceeds 5% for any service"
The Flow
- Type your description and click Create
- AI generates an alert configuration based on your description
- A preview shows you the proposed alert with all settings filled in
- Review and either Activate directly or Edit to adjust settings
- Click Dismiss to cancel
AI-Suggested Alerts
Click "Suggest" (without typing anything) to have AI analyze your recent data and recommend alert rules based on your application's patterns.
For example, if your payment service has seen intermittent spikes, AI might suggest: "Error Spike alert for payment-service: >5 errors in 5 minutes with email notification."
Accuracy
AI-generated alerts are a starting point. Always review the threshold, time window, and notification channels before activating. Use the Preview feature to check if the alert would have fired against your historical data.
