Ops Manager v6.0 will EOL in January 2025. Upgrade to a higher Ops Manager version as soon as possible.

Note

Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {PROJECT-ID} is the same as your project id. For existing groups, your group/project id remains the same. This page uses the more familiar term group when referring to descriptions. The endpoint remains as stated in the document.

GET /groups/{PROJECT-ID}/alertConfigs

Request Path Parameters

All request path parameters are required.

Parameter	Type	Description
PROJECT-ID	string	Unique identifier for this Project.

Request Query Parameters

The following query parameters are optional:

Name	Type	Necessity	Description	Default
pageNum	number	Optional	One-based integer that returns a subsection of results.	`1`
itemsPerPage	number	Optional	Number of items to return per page, up to a maximum of 500.	`100`
pretty	boolean	Optional	Flag that indicates whether the response body should be in a prettyprint format.	`false`
envelope	boolean	Optional	Flag that indicates whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope. Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set `envelope : true` in the query. For endpoints that return a list of results, the `results` object is an envelope. Ops Manager adds the `status` field to the response body.	`false`
backupJobsEnabledOnly	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether to exclude daemons not enabled for backing up databases from the response. Set this to `false` to include daemon configurations with the `backupJobsEnabled` flag set to `false`.	`true`

Request Body Parameters

This endpoint doesn't use HTTP request body parameters.
