About Notifications

Learn how to configure and manage alerts for data quality issues in Validio.

Notification Message

Slack notification message with metric graph and actions

Notifications in Validio are alerts that inform you about data quality issues and incidents in your sources and validators. These messages provide essential context for incident triage:

  • Incident severity levels
  • Affected data sources
  • Segmentation details
  • Metric graphs showing deviation patterns and alert triggers

How Notifications Work

Configure Validio notifications using channels and rules.

Notification Channels

Notification channels route alerts to your team's communication platforms, such as Slack and Microsoft Teams. For supported channels and configuration details, see Notification Channels.

Notification Rules

Notification rules identify the types of changes and failures you want to monitor. These rules:

  • Reference specific conditions that determine when alerts trigger
  • Group incidents by validator to reduce alert fatigue
  • Send consolidated notifications to designated channels.

For detailed setup instructions, see Adding Notification Rules.

Interactive Notification Messages

When you enable Interact Messages, you can manage incidents directly from notification messages. Available actions include:

  • Update incident status - Resolve the incident or provide feedback to improve the anomaly detection model
  • Assign ownership - Designate teams members to resolve issues
  • Mute incidents - Suppress future notifications for specific issues
  • Add comments - Document investigation progress for team visibility

Interactive Message features vary by channel, with some platforms offering more options than others.
