Alert Subscriptions

Customized subscriptions manage when alert notifications are generated based on certain conditions. Alerts are delivered by corporate email or BigQuery:

  • Email: Aggregated notifications are emailed to one or more users based on subscription criteria. For example, subscribe to alerts for Pipeline Failures related to authentication issues. Configure the email alerts to be sent to one or multiple recipients every quarter hour, hour, or day. Use your workplace/corporate email only.

    • Note: Personal email address domains are not supported; for example, you cannot use @yahoo.com or @gmail.com email addresses.

  • BigQuery: When the condition occurs, Data Hub BigQuery notifications display in your Data Hub BigQuery table in the pipeline alert, wrapper success, and mapping alert views. For example, subscribe to alerts to be notified when a particular wrapper finishes running.

You view, add, edit, and delete subscriptions from the Alert Subscriptions page. To see more about working with alerts, including an overview of alert conditions and categories, see Alert Management.

Note: To receive email and BigQuery alerts for the same conditions, add two subscriptions, one for email and one for BigQuery.

  1. Go to the Alert Management > Alert Subscriptions page. Columns of details display about alert subscriptions, including alert category and sub category, alert wrappers or pipelines, delivery mechanism, alert schedule time interval, and so on. A dash displays when there are no available alert details for a column.
  2. When there are multiple pipelines or wrappers listed for an alert, click to see the full list of associated pipelines/wrappers.
  1. Go to the Alert Management > Alert Subscriptions page and click Add. The Add Alert Subscription dialog opens.
  2. Click the Alert Category drop-down list and select Maintenance, Wrapper, Mapping alerts, or Pipeline.
  3. For Sub Category, select one or more sub categories, depending on the alert category selected:

      • All

      • BigQuery Mapping Sync Failure

      • Nightly Maintenance Failure

      • Tenant Upgrade Failure

      • Wrapper Success

      • Wrapper Warning

      • All

      • New custom driver added in WFD

      • New location added in WFD

      • All

      • Pipeline Authentication Issue

      • Pipeline Non Authentication Issue

      • Pipeline Success

  4. Select Separate alert for each sub category to receive a separate email or BigQuery notification for each sub category condition. Otherwise, alert messages are aggregated and either sent in one email per recipient or displayed as a single BigQuery alert.
  5. For Wrapper and Pipeline alert categories, do one of the following:

    • Wrapper. Click the Wrapper drop-down list and select one or more wrappers for which you want to receive alerts.

    • Pipeline. Click the Pipeline drop-down list and select one or more pipelines for which you want to receive alerts.

  6. Click the Delivery Mechanism drop-down list and select BigQuery or Email. If you select Email, do the following:

    • Click the Schedule drop-down list and select the time interval after which you want alerts to be sent:

      • 15 Min. Alerts are aggregated and sent every fifteen minutes. If no alerts are generated in that time, they will be sent after the next 15 minute interval, and so on.

      • Hourly. Alerts are aggregated and sent every hour. If no alerts are generated in that time, they will be sent after the next hour interval, and so on.

      • Daily. Select the Time Zone and Time of day for alert delivery. Alerts are aggregated and sent every day at the selected time. If no alerts are generated in that time, they will be sent after the next day interval, and so on.

    • Enter one or more corporate email addresses, separated by a comma. Generated alert messages will be sent to each email address.
      • Note: Personal email address domains are not supported; for example, you cannot enter @yahoo.com or @gmail.com email addresses.

  7. Do one of the following:

    • Ensure all the required fields are filled and click Submit. The subscription details display on the Alert Subscriptions page.

    • Click Cancel to close the Add Alert Subscription dialog without saving the subscription.

  8. To see BigQuery alerts, navigate to your GCP Data Hub project and review the information in the pipeline alert, wrapper success, and mapping alert views of your BigQuery table.
