## Create alert rules from panels
Create alert rules from time series panels. By doing so, you can reuse the queries in the panel and create alert rules based on them.
1. Navigate to a dashboard in the **Dashboards** section.
2. Hover over the top-right corner of a time series panel and click the panel menu icon.
3. From the dropdown menu, select **More...** > **New alert rule**.
The New alert rule form opens where you can configure and create your alert rule based on the query used in the panel.

Changes to the panel aren't reflected on the linked alert rules. If you change a query, you have to update it in both the panel and the alert rule.
Alert rules are only supported in [time series](ref:time-series) visualizations.
