Please bring back the option to create segregated synthetic alert rules for each of our synthetic monitors. #175298

Open andrelrmarques opened 8 months ago

andrelrmarques commented 8 months ago

Describe the feature:

In Elastic 8.9.x there was an option to create segregated synthetic alert rules for each of our synthetic monitors, if you navigate to Observability > Alerts > Manage Rules > Create Rule , where you would see the following options:

This screenshot shows how that looked like: 20240122-120054-001

After Elastic 8.10.x, the option is not longer available. By having it, we were able to create separate rules for specific monitors by appliing a simple filter. This feature was removed and centralized on just one rule for all monitors starting at 8.10.x release.

Describe a specific use case for the feature: We need to send different alert descriptions for each synthetic monitor, and cannot do it using the current way

Hey @andrelrmarques, not sure why they did that but the workaround for me is adding synthetic-* pattern in Uptime setting indices pattern. This will allow you to use the Uptime rules and create separate alerts for synthetic monitors. Link to Discussion

Hello @Erikg346 , it's a good workaround and I did the same here but the Uptime is being considered a legacy option by now so I am not sure how long it will works.

Just arrived here trying to do the same thing. Any resolution or movement on this?

Also looking for a fix to this. Different monitors may require different criteria before sending out an alert, and the new Synthetics rules offer practically no customization nor filtering. You cannot deprecate and remove Uptime until Synthetics is a better solution. As of now, it is not.
