This panel allows you to create a new custom alarm for the UniFi network.

Begin by entering a descriptive name for the alarm, then select a trigger category to define which type of event or condition the alarm should monitor.

Available categories include:
- **Monitoring** - Device health and operational status events
- **Internet** - WAN connectivity and internet availability events
- **Power** - Power-related events such as outages or PoE issues
- **Security** - Security alerts and threat-related activity
- **System** - System events such as firmware updates or configuration changes

After selecting a category, additional trigger conditions become available for configuration.

Select **Create** to save the alarm or **Cancel** to discard the configuration.

The Scope section defines which devices or groups the alarm rule applies to.

After selecting a trigger category, this section updates to display only the devices eligible for that specific alarm type. If no trigger has been selected, or if no matching devices are available, the panel displays **No Results**.

Select a trigger first, then choose the devices or device groups the alarm should monitor.

Scope

Defines the response that is triggered when the alarm condition is met.

Available action types include:
- **Notify** - Sends a notification through the UniFi system using push notifications or in-app alerts.
- **Webhook** - Sends an HTTP request to an external URL when the alarm is triggered, allowing integration with automation systems, monitoring platforms, or third-party services.
- **Power** - Performs a power-related action on the target device, such as restarting or cycling PoE power for automated recovery workflows.

Only one action type can be configured per alarm rule.
