This release introduces significant enhancements to Alert Routing, focusing on better automation, improved readability, and a smoother configuration experience for complex routing scenarios.
1. Name Mapping–based Auto Routing
Added support for Name Mapping, allowing alerts to be automatically routed to a channel whose name matches a label value.
This eliminates the need to manually maintain explicit routing targets for each service or application, making it ideal for multi-service and multi-team environments.
Example:
labels.application_name = "order-service"- The alert is automatically routed to the
order-servicechannel
2. Channel Filtering and Sorting
When working with many routing rules, you can now filter and sort rules by channel, making it easier to locate, understand, and manage routing configurations.
3. Routing Rules UI Improvements
- Drag-and-drop support for reordering routing rules
- Clearer presentation of rule conditions and actions
- Cleaner layout for faster configuration and troubleshooting
