Create or Edit a Policy
Create, edit, delete, enable, and disable policies with the Policy Editor. You can also use Policy Editor to enable and disable notifications.
Open the Policy Editor.
Navigate to Alerts > + Add New Policy.
Begin crafting your policy at Step 1: Scope.
You can also open an existing policy and click Edit Policy. Policies that correspond to inactive datasources cannot be edited.

The top of your policy has 3 important fields:
Name: Make this human readable, something your team would understand months or years down the road.
Enable Policy: Policies are automatically enabled upon creation. To complete an unfinished policy at a later time, uncheck this field and save.
Category: Info, Warning, or Critical.
Category | Color | Description |
---|---|---|
Info | Blue | The Info category indicates that a policy has been violated, but the anomalous behavior is not critical. |
Warning | Yellow | The Warning category indicates that a policy has been violated, and there will likely be a more critical alert in the future. |
Critical | Red | The Critical category indicates that a policy has been violated, and the cause of the event should be addressed quickly. |
