Basics

IMPulse is installed between alert source and a messenger to create Incidents entity.

Alertmanager example

In this example, IMPulse receives alerts from Alertmanager and sends them to your messenger channel based on the messenger↰ and route↰ configuration.

Alertmanager sends alerts with one of two statuses: firing and resolved. Based on these statuses, IMPulse creates Incidents. The first Incident status is always firing when a problem occurs.
