How to add the users in the dashboard alert in grafana 9.1 version

welcome to the :grafana: community @ravitejachandika

I trying to add the 3 users to one of my selected dashboards . here i dont have option to add individual users to that particular dashboards alert.
Is there any step-by-step document or tutorial ?

  • In the top right corner of the dashboard, click Dashboard settings (the cog icon).
  • Click Permissions and then click Add Permission.

  • In the Add Permission For dropdown menu, select User
  • Select the user
  • Select the permission and click Save

Apologies if I am not understanding this fully.

Actuallly i’m trying to configure alert for my dashboard .
i configured the disk usage alert , if the disk avg usage is above 80% then alert email should trigger .

what i have done was

  1. run the query and created the alert
  2. In alerts its showing the alert is firing and the health is OK .And i received the alert only one time
  3. Right now i could see that there are 5 -8 servers which reaches disk usage is above 80% . Still i’m not receiving email alerts .

what to check and what to do ?

And where to find the “Rule-uid” in alerts section and after creating new alert iam not able to view the new rule_uid .

PFA for reference

@ravitejachandika

try setting the alert to evaluate Every 1m for 0s, so you make sure it fires the moment the condiiton is met. I think your current setting Every 1m for 2m is producing unpredictable results because the system is trying to evaluate every 1 minutes, but the for part has not finished its 2 minutes yet.

You can check the uid in the url of your browser when editing the alert rule

In addition, you should review your notification policy

group interval
repeat interval
