Alerting

You can easily manage events and alerts by using Instana.

Both built-in events and custom events help you to spot problems in your monitored system as soon as they start to appear. But to be able to quickly and efficiently react in such situations, you can define alerts to receive alert notifications to any of your alert integrations in real time.

FAQ

Why do I receive multiple notifications for the same issue or incident to my alert integration?

Instana usually notifies only one time to configured alert integrations. But if there are failures, such as status codes 429 or 5XX, or reaching the 10-second timeout, Instana retries sending up to three times in total.
