APPLIES TO: Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Single Server

Important

Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Single Server is on the retirement path. We strongly recommend that you upgrade to Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server. For more information about migrating to Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server, see What's happening to Azure Database for PostgreSQL Single Server?.

This article shows you how to set up Azure Database for PostgreSQL alerts using the Azure portal. You can receive an alert based on monitoring metrics for your Azure services.

The alert triggers when the value of a specified metric crosses a threshold you assign. The alert triggers both when the condition is first met, and then afterwards when that condition is no longer being met.

You can configure an alert to do the following actions when it triggers:

  • Send email notifications to the service administrator and co-administrators.
  • Send email to additional emails that you specify.
  • Call a webhook.

You can configure and get information about alert rules using:

  1. In the Azure portal, select the Azure Database for PostgreSQL server you want to monitor.

  2. Under the Monitoring section of the sidebar, select Alerts as shown:
