In the new Observability Overview page, we're planning to show two charts to give the user a clear picture of which alert is active at the moment.
In this chart, we want to show all active instances for all observability plugins (APM/Logs/Uptime/Metrics) grouped by type.
And in this one, we want to show some alert detail and the number of active instances next to it.
Current situation:
In the current API to get this information I have to first call _find to get all created alerts, then filter by Observability plugins (APM/Logs/Uptime/Metrics), and make an HTTP call for each alert to get the active instances.
What a need:
An API that returns all active instances and the alert details, with the possibility to filter by consumer and alert type.
Example API:
alerting.getInstances({ active: true, consumers: ['apm', 'uptime', 'metrics'] })Example response:
