Creating alert policies in Dagster+

You can create alert policies in the Dagster+ UI or with the dagster-cloud CLI.

Alert policies are configured on a per-deployment basis. This means, for example, that asset alerts configured in a prod deployment are only applicable to assets in that deployment.

note

To send alert notifications through a channel other than email, you will need to configure an alert notification service.

In the UI

1. In the Dagster UI, click Deployment.
2. In the left sidebar, click Alert policies.
3. Click Create alert policy.
4. Choose the policy type from the menu and click Continue.
5. Choose targets and events (if applicable) for your alert and click Continue.
6. Choose a notification channel for your alert and click Continue.
7. Review and save your alert and click Save alert.

Using the CLI

1. Create an alert policy configuration file. For examples, see the example configuration reference.
2. Sync the alert policy configuration file to your Dagster+ deployment:

dagster-cloud deployment alert-policies sync -a /path/to/alert_policies.yaml
