Note

Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {GROUP-ID} is the same as your project ID. For existing groups, your group/project ID remains the same. The resource and corresponding endpoints use the term groups.

Syntax

GET /groups/{GROUP-ID}/alertConfigs

Request Path Parameters

Parameter	Required/Optional	Description
`{GROUP-ID}`	Required	Project identifier.

Request Query Parameters

This endpoint may use any of the HTTP request query parameters available to all Atlas Administration API resources. These are all optional.

Name	Type	Necessity	Description	Default
pageNum	integer	Optional	Page number, starting with one, that Atlas returns of the total number of objects.	`1`
itemsPerPage	integer	Optional	Number of items that Atlas returns per page, up to a maximum of 500.	`100`
includeCount	boolean	Optional	Flag that indicates whether Atlas returns the totalCount parameter in the response body.	`true`
pretty	boolean	Optional	Flag that indicates whether Atlas returns the JSON response in the prettyprint format.	`false`
envelope	boolean	Optional	Flag that indicates whether Atlas wraps the response in an envelope. Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set `envelope=true` in the query. Endpoints that return a list of results use the results object as an envelope. Atlas adds the status parameter to the response body.	`false`

Request Body Parameters

This endpoint does not use HTTP request body parameters.

Response Elements

The response includes the totalCount of the alert configurations and a results array which lists all alert configurations for the group. Each alert configuration details include:

Host alerts support these fields: `TYPE_NAME` `HOSTNAME` `PORT` `HOSTNAME_AND_PORT` `REPLICA_SET_NAME` Replica set alerts support these fields: `REPLICA_SET_NAME` `SHARD_NAME` `CLUSTER_NAME` Sharded cluster alerts support these fields: `CLUSTER_NAME` `SHARD_NAME` All other types of alerts do not support matchers.

`metricThreshold` `.operator`	string	Operator to apply when checking the current metric value against the threshold value. Accepted values are: `GREATER_THAN` `LESS_THAN`
`metricThreshold` `.threshold`	integer	Threshold value outside of which an alert will be triggered.
`metricThreshold` `.units`	string	Units for the threshold value. Depends on the type of metric.
