OpenSearch Dashboards

|
You can use the Alerting plugin in OpenSearch Dashboards to monitor your data and create alert notifications that trigger when conditions occur in one or more indexes.
|
|
|
|
You create a monitor with trigger conditions that generate various alert notifications through the message channel you select as a destination. Notifications can be sent to email, Slack, or Amazon Chime.
|
|
|
|
The monitor you create notifies you when data from one or more OpenSearch indexes meets certain conditions. For example, you might want to notify a [Slack](https://slack.com/) channel if your application logs more than five HTTP 503 errors in one hour, or you might want to page a developer if no new documents have been indexed in the past 20 minutes.

|
|
To get started, choose **Alerting** in OpenSearch Dashboards.
