What problem would you like to solve? Please describe:
Currently, there is no way to differentiate between actionable alerts and false positives within GoAlert. It would be beneficial to have a mechanism to capture and report on the usefulness of alerts to improve response efficiency.

Describe the solution you'd like:

  • Allow users to mark alerts as one of three states: actionable, false positive, or none (default).

Describe alternatives you've considered:

  • Teams can manually review alerts regularly, but this may not provide the same level of context and efficiency as marking alerts in the moment.

Out of Scope:

  • Implement a reporting feature that provides an overview of alerts in each of the three states to help teams identify trends and improve alert management.

Additional context:

  • This feature would help teams better understand the effectiveness of their alerting system and identify areas for improvement.

MVP notes to implement this:

  • Thumbs up/thumbs down buttons (on right side of alert details, actions move to left)
  • Buttons have tooltips giving examples: Down=false positive, non-actionable, flapping/auto-closed quickly, not enough info; Up=customer impact, actionable, good information
  • impl hint: create a new table with alert ID and sentiment (as int +/- 1) add rating field to Alert in schema, defaults to 0

Future improvements (MVP+1):

  • update alert metrics table & graph to include rating info
  • possibly list recent un-rated alerts
  • a note/comment field for down-rated alerts
