| 3 | +--- |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +Segment's default alerts have a preset trigger and are often used to detect changes users make to the integrations in your workspace. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +On the **Monitor** tab, you can see all of your alerts, separated by product area, in a tabular format. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +> info "Only Workspace Owners can view and edit all alerts" |
| 10 | +> Users with other roles can see all alerts in a workspace, but can only edit or see the configured details for alerts that they created. |
| 11 | +
|
| 12 | +You can create alerts for the following product areas: |
| 13 | +- [Sources](#source-alerts) |
| 14 | +- [Destinations](#destination-alerts) |
| 15 | +- [Storage Destinations](#storage-destination-alerts) |
| 16 | +- [Protocols](#protocols-alerts) |
| 17 | +- [Unify](#unify-alerts) |
| 18 | +- [Engage](#engage-alerts) |
| 19 | +- [Functions](#functions-alerts) |
| 20 | +- [Reverse ETL](#reverse-etl-alerts) |
| 21 | +- [Data Graph](#data-graph-alerts) |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +The Alerting table includes the following information about each event: |
| 24 | +- **Alert name**: The type of alert, for example, "Audience created" or "Audience deleted". |
| 25 | +- **Last triggered**: The most recent date and time, in your local time zone, that the alert was triggered. |
