Connect Grafana Alerting as an integration
In this milestone, you connect Grafana Alerting as the alert source that feeds the schedule and escalation chain you already built. The integration sends Grafana Cloud alert rules to IRM for automatic grouping, routing, escalation, and notification.
To add Grafana Alerting as an integration and associate it with your escalation chain, complete the following steps:
Add Grafana Alerting as an integration.
The integration is now created in IRM, but alert rules won’t create Alert groups until you assign the IRM contact point to those rules in the next milestone. First, route alerts from this integration to the escalation chain you built earlier.
Route alerts from the integration to your escalation chain.
IRM now routes alerts from this integration to your escalation chain, which notifies the current on-call user from your schedule.
In the next milestone, you connect an alert rule so live alerts reach IRM through your new integration.
