# Alert Management

## Introduction

Alert Management is a vital system within Automate that facilitates the notification of users through various channels regarding events that may not be directly visible on-screen but require attention or intervention.

The primary purpose of Alert Management is to keep users informed about critical events or situations within the system, ensuring timely responses and actions.
