Palo Alto Networks Alert Rules API is one of 741 APIs that [Palo Alto Networks](https://apis.io/providers/palo-alto-networks/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Alert Rules. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification.

Alert rules define what policy violations trigger alerts for cloud accounts within the selected account group and where to send the alert notifications. Alert rules give you a lot of flexibility in how you manage alerts and ensure that you can adhere to the administrative boundaries you have defined. You can create a single alert rule that alerts on all policy rules, or you can define granular alert rules that send very specific sets of alerts for specific cloud accounts, regions, and even resources to specific destinations.
