Configure Alertmanager
Configure Alertmanager from Grafana Alerting to group and manage alert rules, adding a layer of orchestration on top of your external alerting engine.
Add a new external Alertmanager
- In the Grafana menu, click the Alerting (bell) icon to open the Alerting page listing existing alerts.
- Click Admin and then scroll down to the External Alertmanager section.
- Click Add Alertmanager and a modal opens.
- Add the URL and the port for the external Alertmanager. You do not need to specify the path suffix, for example,
/api/v(1|2)/alerts. Grafana automatically adds this.
The external URL is listed in the table with a pending status. Once Grafana verifies that the Alertmanager is discovered, the status changes to active. No requests are made to the external Alertmanager at this point; the verification signals that alerts are ready to be sent.
Edit an external Alertmanager
- Click the pen symbol to the right of the Alertmanager row in the table.
- When the edit modal opens, you can view all the URLs that were added.
The edited URL will be pending until Grafana verifies it again.
