Getting Alerts in Anypoint Monitoring

Feature available in Advanced usage and Subscription-based tiers

Alerts indicate whether a resource (such as a Mule app or API) is behaving as expected or exceeding a defined threshold.

Alerts in Anypoint Monitoring

You can create these types of alerts:

For alerts in Anypoint Monitoring, you can:

Alert Thresholds

For basic and advanced alerts in Anypoint Monitoring, thresholds are checked every five minutes. The evaluated query is the average value of the metric in the last five minutes. For advanced alerts, the evaluated metric is the one referenced in the General tab for the graph. If the value of the metric passes the threshold, the alert triggers. The alert triggers only if the alert state changes (from OK state to Alerting state or vice versa). If you change the email address of the alert recipient, the recipient doesn’t receive an email until the alert triggers.

Filter Alerts by Alert Severity

Filter alerts based on severity using the following filters:

All severities

Lists all severities

Not defined

Info

May be assigned to alerts that do not require immediate attention when triggered. This severity indicates the metric should be passively monitored.

Warning

May be assigned to alerts that require prompt attention when triggered. This severity indicates an alert should be closely monitored.

Critical

May be assigned to alerts that require immediate attention when triggered. This severity indicates an alert should receive an immediate response.

Enable and Disable Alerts

You can enable or disable an alert by toggling the switch on the right:

  • Enabling a disabled alert causes the alert to transition to Pending until it is time for evaluation.

    Depending on the value, the alert transitions to OK or Alerting.

  • Disabling an alert causes the alert to transition to Disabled.
