Alerts change from time based pattern to include actual alert in subject
So far we are receiving atlas alerts in time based manner which are difficult to undersatnd/analyze just by looking at email subject.
We are expecting a model in which we want to Separate alerts for each instance instead of combining alerts on a single time frame and Changing email alert subject to include alert description. This will allows us to understand the alert by looking at email subject , combine/view all alerts in email client (for example outlook) , write some rules on them and analyze the alert timing pattern by sorting and group by alert description.
For example,
Present alert subject : Alert - prod-mdb - 2020-02-11T22:23-0600 which consists of alert : Operations: Scan and Order has gone above 1 (avg/sec) in email body
Expected alert subject: Alert - prod-mdb-customer-shard-00-00-ldo8e.gcp.mongodb.net- Operations: Scan and Order has gone above 1 (avg/sec) in subject
Thanks,
Kasi.

We really need the alert subjects to be descriptive.

Hi Kasi,
You might be better suited using one of our alert integrations (we support Pagerduty, Slack, and many others).
