Grouping

Multiple related notifications may be generated within a short time window. Instead of sending each alert separately, you can use notification grouping to consolidate multiple events into a single message.

Example: When a multiple Helm releases are failing to upgrade because of common dependency not being available, you can use notification grouping to consolidate the notifications for all the affected helm releases into a single message.

The groupBy parameter allows you to define how notifications should be grouped. Grouping can be done via

  • type (type of the config)
  • description
  • status_reason
  • label in the format label:app
  • tag in the format tag:namespace
