Failure notifications

There are a variety of reasons a custom monitor may fail to run, such as a query time-out, insufficient permissions, or a referenced table being deleted.

When creating a custom monitor, you have the option to be proactively notified when that monitor fails. You can configure the audiences that failure notifications are sent to in the Send notifications section of the monitor creation or edit page.

Additional details:

• Expect a latency of 2 to 10 minutes between when the monitor execution has failed, and when a notification will be sent.
• Failure notifications are only sent for failures, but not for any types of misconfigurations.
