Alert Owner View

The Alert Owner View is a dedicated interface for users who have been assigned the "Alert Owner" role. It provides a personalized view where Alert Owners can focus on the sub-alerts specifically assigned to them.

Email Verification for Alert Owners

When an Alert Owner is added to LightBeam Playbooks by an Admin through the User Management system, they receive an email notification to verify their email address. This verification process ensures that the Alert Owner has access to the registered email account and can receive notifications related to their assigned sub-alerts.

To complete the email verification process, the Alert Owner should:

  1. Open the email notification received from LightBeam Playbooks.

  2. Click on the verification link provided in the email.

  3. Follow the instructions on the verification page to confirm their email address.

Once the email address is verified, the Alert Owner will have full access to the Alert Owner View and can start managing their assigned sub-alerts.

Accessing the Alert Owner View

To access the Alert Owner View, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to LightBeam Playbooks using your Alert Owner credentials.
