To stay informed on fleet activity, create alerts for the events that matter most to you and your fleet administrators. To minimize alert fatigue, consider a narrow scope where you alert contacts in a need-to-know and requires immediate action approach.
Notice
Each alert supports a max of 4000 devices.
-
Select Alerts (
) > Configure.
-
Under the More menu, filter alerts by Status (Enabled or Disabled) or by Type (Harsh Event, Scheduled Maintenance, Speed, or Temperature).
-
Select an alert type to modify the alert configuration or create a new alert by selecting an alert from the Add an Alert section.
