Alerts and notifications

An incident opens when a rule fires and closes on its own when the condition clears. You do not acknowledge or dismiss them — a machine that came back does not need you to confirm it came back.

Notification channels are configured per account, not per machine. Telegram and email both work.

What gets sent:

  • A rental starts — the rate and an estimate of what it will pay.
  • A rental ends — how long it ran and what it earned.
  • A machine goes offline — after the 300-second threshold, not on the first missed heartbeat.
  • Plan and billing changes — including the grace-period deadline before an account freezes.

Connect once from the panel; the bot then messages you directly. The link is to your Telegram account rather than to a specific chat, so it survives you changing devices.

The failure mode of notifications is not missing one — it is getting so many that you stop reading them. Two habits help:

Let offline alerts be loud and rentals be quiet. A machine that fell over needs you now; a rental that started does not.

Fix the noisy machine rather than muting the alert. A machine that flaps offline twice a day is telling you something real about its network or its power.
