# Alerts

In JFrog Connect, you can create alerts that will inform you about various states and resource usage of your devices. For example, you can set a trigger to send you an alert whenever a device has used more than 80% of its disk space.

Creating an alert trigger requires the following procedures:

1. **Prepare Channel Type**: Create an email account or a [webhook URL](/features-new-ui/tools/get-alerts/create-channel/set-webhook.md#webhook-url) that will be used in your channel configuration.
2. [**Create Channel**](/features-new-ui/tools/get-alerts/create-channel.md): Configure the channel in which you will receive alerts.
3. **Create Alert**: Define the type of alert and a threshold for triggering the alert. This procedure is described below.

## Create Alert

To create an alert, go to Alerts in the left navigation tree and click Create Alert.

Complete the following information:

* **Alert Name**: Enter a name to help you remember what this alert is for.
* **Channels**: Choose an alert channel from the list and click Apply. You can add multiple channels. If there are no channels in the list, click Create Channel and define one.&#x20;
* **Alert Trigger**: Choose whether the alert will be triggered by a device resource or a process on the device.
  * **Trigger Condition**: Define the threshold that will trigger an alert. For example, an alert on a resource might be: CPU > 80%.
* **Apply On**: Choose the devices the alert will be applied to. You can choose criteria for selecting the devices to be monitored, or you choose specific devices.

After choosing the information above, create the new alert.
