Media type application/json

An alert rule evaluates a PromQL/LogQL expression over a signal (metric or log) and, for ALERT-kind rules, routes fired alerts through a notification tree to webhook, email, or app-message receivers. A RECORDING-kind rule instead precomputes a derived series and needs no route. The provider that evaluates the rule is reported by the read-only engine field.

object

id

The unique identifier of the alert rule.

stringOutput only

workspace_id

The workspace this rule belongs to. Derived from the {workspace} path segment on create; reported read-only thereafter.

stringOutput only

location_id

required

Weak reference to a topology Location — where the telemetry resides. Immutable after create.

string

name

required

The rule’s handle: a DNS-label (lowercase alphanumerics and hyphens, up to 63 characters), unique within the workspace. Set on create, immutable thereafter.

string

kind

required

Whether the rule raises notifications (ALERT) or precomputes a series (RECORDING). Immutable after create.

Default error response

Media type application/json

The Status type defines a logical error model that is suitable for different programming environments, including REST APIs and RPC APIs. It is used by gRPC. Each Status message contains three pieces of data: error code, error message, and error details. You can find out more about this error model and how to work with it in the API Design Guide.

object

code

The status code, which should be an enum value of [google.rpc.Code][google.rpc.Code].

integer format: int32

message

A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the [google.rpc.Status.details][google.rpc.Status.details] field, or localized by the client.

string

details

A list of messages that carry the error details. There is a common set of message types for APIs to use.

Array<object>

Contains an arbitrary serialized message along with a @type that describes the type of the serialized message.

object

@type

The type of the serialized message.
