We have received a lot of feedback regarding the ValueString in alert notifications. Perhaps one of the most frequent complaints about ValueString is that it is difficult to read because it contains a lot of information, and the information is shown as a JSON-like string. Users have often asked how it can be templated and the answer is that it can't. Until now users have been able to add custom annotations to their alert rules which contains values via the $values variable added in previous versions of Grafana. However, these custom annotations must be added for each of the user's alert rule, instead of once in a template that all of their alerts can be notified via. This commit adds then the much requested feature to support values in notification templates. Users can then create a single template that prints the annotations, labels and values of their alerts in a format of their choice!
The open-source platform for monitoring and observability
Grafana allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your metrics no matter where they are stored. Create, explore, and share dashboards with your team and foster a data-driven culture:
- Visualizations: Fast and flexible client side graphs with a multitude of options. Panel plugins offer many different ways to visualize metrics and logs.
- Dynamic Dashboards: Create dynamic & reusable dashboards with template variables that appear as dropdowns at the top of the dashboard.
- Explore Metrics: Explore your data through ad-hoc queries and dynamic drilldown. Split view and compare different time ranges, queries and data sources side by side.
- Explore Logs: Experience the magic of switching from metrics to logs with preserved label filters. Quickly search through all your logs or streaming them live.
- Alerting: Visually define alert rules for your most important metrics. Grafana will continuously evaluate and send notifications to systems like Slack, PagerDuty, VictorOps, OpsGenie.
- Mixed Data Sources: Mix different data sources in the same graph! You can specify a data source on a per-query basis. This works for even custom datasources.
