How do email alerts work?

InfraBeacon can send email alerts when one of your monitors needs attention.

Types of alerts

  • Downtime alerts - Sent when your uptime monitor detects your site is down, and again when it recovers.
  • Visual change alerts - Sent when a regression monitor detects changes above your tolerance setting.
  • Domain expiry alerts - Sent before your domain registration expires.
  • SSL expiry alerts - Sent before your SSL certificate expires.

Setting alert emails

You can set alerts for each monitor. Each monitor can use your default contact group or a different contact group.

For team routing, shared recipients, or Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, and Telegram delivery, use the Notification Service.

Snoozing alerts

If you are doing maintenance or expect a short issue, you can snooze alerts for a monitor to avoid unnecessary notifications.
