You must activate each channel (via a verification code) before you can use it in any rule.
Define when and how you want to be notified for each event type.
High-priority alerts
Notifies you when a high-priority alert is assigned (on creation or when added as a responder).
Low-priority alerts
Notifies you when a low-priority alert is assigned (on creation or when added as a responder).
Alert status updates
Notifies you when you’re already assigned to an alert and its status changes (e.g., another user accepts the alert).
Incident notifications
Notifies you when you’re added to an incident as a subscriber (on creation or when added manually).
On-call notifications
Notifies you at a specified time before your on-call shift begins (e.g., 15 min prior).
Follow these steps to set up a rule that sends you an email 3 minutes after a high-priority alert is created:
Tap + Add notification rule
Configure the rule
Contact & Channel: Email
Timing: Delay by 3 minutes
Save the Rule
Alert notifications in ilert are bi-directional; you can respond to a notification using the same channel on which you were notified (without logging into ilert), e.g., by replying to an SMS.
You have the following response options:
Acknowledge the alert
Mark the alert as resolved
Escalation to the next user in the alert's escalation policy
