## Create alert rules from panels
|
||||
|
||||
Create alert rules from time series panels. By doing so, you can reuse the queries in the panel and create alert rules based on them.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to a dashboard in the **Dashboards** section.
|
||||
2. Hover over the top-right corner of a time series panel and click the panel menu icon.
|
||||
3. From the dropdown menu, select **More...** > **New alert rule**.
|
||||
|
||||
The New alert rule form opens where you can configure and create your alert rule based on the query used in the panel.
|
||||
|
||||
{{% admonition type="note" %}}
|
||||
Changes to the panel aren't reflected on the linked alert rules. If you change a query, you have to update it in both the panel and the alert rule.
|
||||
|
||||
Alert rules are only supported in [time series](ref:time-series-visualizations) visualizations.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## View alert rules from panels
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
1. Open the panel editor by hovering over the top-right corner of any panel
|
||||
1. Click the panel menu icon that appears.

# Create and link alert rules to panels
|
||||
|
||||
Grafana allows you to link an alert rule to a dashboard panel. This can help you:
|
||||
|
||||
- Inform alert responders about where to investigate and which data to examine.
|
||||
- Visualize the alert state directly from dashboards.
|
||||
|
||||
An alert rule is linked to a panel by setting the [`dashboardUId` and `panelId` annotations](ref:annotations). Both annotations must be set together.
|
||||
|
||||
## Link alert rules to panels
|
||||
|
||||
When configuring the alert rule, you can set the dashboard and panel annotations as shown in this [video](https://youtu.be/ClLp-iSoaSY?si=qKWnvSVaQuvYcuw9&t=170).
|
||||
|
||||
1. Configure the alert rule.
|
||||
1. In the **Configure notification message** section, click **Link dashboard and panel**.
|
||||
1. Select an existing dashboard, then choose a panel from the selected dashboard.
|
||||
1. Complete the alert rule configuration and click **Save rule** to initiate the alert rule.
|
||||
|
||||
You can then [view the alert state on the panel](ref:view-alert-state-on-panels).
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="/media/docs/alerting/panel-displays-alert-state.png" max-width="1200px" caption="A panel displaying the alert status and state changes." >}}
|
||||
|
||||
## Create alert rules from panels
|
||||
|
||||
To streamline alert creation, you can create an alert rule directly from a panel.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to a dashboard in the **Dashboards** section.
|
||||
1. Hover over the top-right corner of a panel and click the panel menu icon.
|
||||
1. From the dropdown menu, select **More...** > **New alert rule**.
|
||||
1. This opens the **Edit rule** form and pre-fills some values:
|
||||
- Sets the `dashboardUId` and `panelId` annotations to the corresponding dashboard and panel.
|
||||
- Sets the alert rule query using the panel query.
|
||||
1. Complete the alert rule configuration and click **Save rule** to initiate the alert rule.
|
||||
|
||||
You can then [view the alert state on the panel](ref:view-alert-state-on-panels).
|
||||
|
||||
{{% admonition type="note" %}}
|
||||
Changes to panel and alert rule queries aren't synchronized. If you change a query, you have to update it in both the panel and the alert rule.
|
||||
{{% /admonition %}}
|
||||
|
||||
## Access linked alert rules from panels
|
||||
|
||||
This option is available only in [time series panels](ref:time-series-visualizations). To access alert rules associated to a time series panel, complete the following steps.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Hover over the top-right corner of the panel and click the panel menu icon.
|
||||
1. Click **Edit**.
|
||||
1. Click the **Alert** tab to view existing alert rules or create a new one.

# View alert state on panels
|
||||
|
||||
When an [alert rule is linked to a time series panel](ref:link-alert-rules-to-panels), the time series panel displays the alert state and alert events.
|
||||
|
||||
A heart icon near the panel title shows the current alert state:
|
||||
|
||||
- A broken red heart when the alert is in `Alerting` state.
|
||||
- A green heart when the alert is in `Normal` state.
|
||||
|
||||
Colored annotations indicate changes in alert state, such as pending, alerting, and resolving.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="/media/docs/alerting/panel-displays-alert-state.png" max-width="1200px" alt="A panel with a firing alert and annotations that display the pending and alerting state changes." >}}
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, Grafana provides an [alert list panel](ref:alert-list-panel) that you can add to a dashboard to display a list of alerts and their states.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="/static/img/docs/alert-list-panel/alert-list-panel.png" max-width="850px" alt="Two alert list panels displaying distinct lists of alerts." >}}
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure the alert list panel with various visualization options and filters to control how alerts are displayed. For more details, refer to the [Alert list documentation](ref:alert-list-panel).
