# Set up Alerting
|
|
|
|
Set up or upgrade your implementation of Grafana Alerting.
|
|
|
|
**Note:**
|
|
|
|
These are set-up instructions for Grafana Alerting Open Source.
|
|
|
|
To set up Grafana Alerting for Cloud, see [Set up Alerting for Cloud]({{< relref "../set-up/set-up-cloud" >}}).
|
|
|
|
## Before you begin
|
|
|
|
- Configure your [data sources]({{< relref "../../administration/data-source-management" >}})
|
|
- Check which data sources are compatible with and supported by [Grafana Alerting]({{< relref "../fundamentals/data-source-alerting" >}})
|
|
|
|
## Set up Alerting
|
|
|
|
To set up Alerting, you need to:
|
|
|
|
1. Configure alert rules
|
|
|
|
- Create Grafana-managed or Mimir/Loki-managed alert rules and recording rules
|
|
|
|
1. Configure contact points
|
|
|
|
- Check the default contact point and update the email address
|
|
|
|
- [Optional] Add new contact points and integrations
|
|
|
|
1. Configure notification policies
|
|
|
|
- Check the default notification policy
|
|
|
|
- [Optional] Add additional nested policies
|
|
|
|
- [Optional] Add labels and label matchers to control alert routing
|
|
|
|
1. [Optional] Integrate with [Grafana OnCall](/docs/oncall/latest/integrations/grafana-alerting)
|
|
|
|
## Advanced set up options
|
|
|
|
Grafana Alerting supports many additional configuration options, from configuring external Alertmanagers to routing Grafana-managed alerts outside of Grafana, to defining your alerting setup as code.
