Incident grouping

Incident grouping is useful in preventing multiple alerts about the same incident. When incident grouping is set up, incidents that are likely related will be grouped together.

Configuring the sensitivity of incident grouping:

  • Go to Teams.
  • Click the team you want to configure incident grouping for.
  • Select the timeframe during which incidents will be grouped together.
  • Click Save changes.
