Create and manage contact groups - Managed Service for Prometheus

When you create a notification policy, you can specify a contact group that receives alert notifications. When a matching rule of the notification policy is triggered, the alert management feature of Managed Service for Prometheus sends alert notifications to contacts in the specified contact group by using methods such as phone calls, text messages, emails, and DingTalk chatbots.

Prerequisites

A contact, a DingTalk chatbot, a WeCom chatbot, or a Lark chatbot is created. For more information, see the following topics:
