Configuring Alerts
Alerts in Validata are event-driven notifications sent outside the application UI to inform users about important validation events. Alerts support proactive operational monitoring by notifying users even when they are not logged in to Validata.
Typical examples of alert-worthy events include:
A validation run has failed or halted
A validation run completes with an Out-of-Sync status
A scheduled run has started
A mismatch threshold is exceeded
Note
Alert channel configuration applies globally to all Validations.
Only one alert delivery channel can be enabled at a time. Configure only the channel you intend to use.
Validata supports the following alert delivery channels:
email
Slack
Microsoft Teams
Each channel must be configured before alerts can be delivered. After configuring email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams alerts, Validata will deliver notifications whenever significant validation events occur. Alerts enhance operational readiness by ensuring that data inconsistencies, failures, and status updates reach the right users promptly—even when they are not actively monitoring the UI.
The following alerts will be sent:
