Overview
The Overview is the landing page of the Monitoring area. It summarizes alert activity across the tenant — current load by severity, breakdown by resource group, and the most recent activity — and links into the rest of the section.

Alert Overview
The top section presents the platform-wide alert load through two widgets.
Active Alerts
A large count of currently active alerts (Open or Acknowledged — anything that has not yet been resolved). Inline badges break out the Critical and High counts when those severities are present. A status line reports how many alerts remain unacknowledged and how many distinct rules contributed to the open set — for example, 5 alerts are not acknowledged yet. and Alerts have been generated by 3 different alert rules.. When no incidents have ever opened, the line reads No incidents have been generated from existing alert rules.
A
Alert severity
A donut chart shows the distribution of active alerts across the four severity levels, with a percentage legend under a Severity levels label. The colour-to-severity mapping is documented on the Alerts page and is consistent across every widget in the section.
Alert Breakdown
Three cards — one per resource group — render side by side:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Total Alerts | Count of every alert ever raised against resources in this group, regardless of status |
| Active Alerts | Count currently Open or Acknowledged |
| Donut | Active-to-total ratio visualization |
| Severity badge | Reads, for example, "3 critical severity alerts" — the count and label reflect the highest severity currently open against the group. When the group has no active alerts the badge reads "No active alerts" |
| See-all link |
Latest Alerts
The lower section is a data table of recent alerts with the same toolbar filters as the main Alerts list (search, alert type, status, severity). The column set differs slightly from the main list: Created, Last Updated, Severity, Alert Rule name, Alert, Resource, and Status — there is no Resource Group column. Each row's menu offers
Empty State
When the tenant has no alerts at all:
- The Active Alerts card shows
0with theNo incidents have been generated from existing alert rules.line in place of the rule-count text. - Each breakdown card shows the "No active alerts" badge and hides the
See all link. - The severity chart renders an empty circle, with each severity listed in the legend without a percentage.
- The Latest Alerts table shows the heading "No alerts found" and the body "There are no alerts at this time."
