Notifications

Tailglow emails subscribed users when monitor alerts open. For spanning alerts, it also sends a notification when the alert recovers.

Manage subscriptions

Open Profile then Notifications. The Auto-subscribe to new monitors switch subscribes you to monitors created in teams where you are a member. Use the activity button to open Update Monitor Subscriptions and choose individual monitors across your teams.

The switch next to a monitor in its metric’s monitor drawer changes whether the monitor is active for everyone. Manage your own email subscriptions from Profile > Notifications.

Alert behavior

When a monitor condition becomes true, Tailglow opens an alert and emails subscribed users. A spanning alert stays open until the condition clears and then sends a recovery notification. An instant alert opens and ends in the same evaluation.
