Alerts - Monitoring and Notifications

Overview

Section titled “Overview”

Alerts in LogCentral notify you when important events occur in your logs. Instead of constantly watching dashboards, you can configure alerts to keep you informed about critical events in your infrastructure.

Notification Channels

Section titled “Notification Channels”

LogCentral supports two notification channels:

  • Email notifications: Receive alerts directly in your inbox
  • In-app notifications: See alerts within the LogCentral interface

Configuring Alerts

Alerts Configuration

Accessing Alert Settings

Section titled “Accessing Alert Settings”

To configure alerts for your locations, navigate to the location details page. You’ll find the alert configuration options where you can choose your preferred notification channels.

Choosing Delivery Channels

Section titled “Choosing Delivery Channels”

For each location, you can select which notification channels you want to use:

  1. Navigate to your location’s settings
  2. Find the alerts configuration section
  3. Enable or disable email notifications
  4. Enable or disable in-app notifications
  5. Save your preferences

You can enable both channels to ensure you don’t miss important alerts, or choose just one based on your workflow.
