| No Data configuration | Description |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| No Data | The default option. Sets alert instance state to `No data`. <br/> The alert rule also creates a new alert instance `DatasourceNoData` with the name and UID of the alert rule, and UID of the datasource that returned no data as labels. |
| Alerting | Sets alert instance state to `Alerting`. It transitions from `Pending` to `Alerting` after the [pending period](ref:pending-period) has finished. |
| Alerting | Sets the alert instance state to `Pending` and then transitions to `Alerting` once the [pending period](ref:pending-period) ends. If you sent the pending period to 0, the alert instance state is immediately set to `Alerting`. |
| Normal | Sets alert instance state to `Normal`. |
| Keep Last State | Maintains the alert instance in its last state. Useful for mitigating temporary issues, refer to [Keep last state](ref:keep-last-state). |
