Hi,

we are using the same set of alert rules for both, our production and qa 
environment, with the severity label set to a value based on what is 
appropriate for production.
As a consequence, alert severity is too high for most alerts in our qa 
environment.

The environment is available as a label form every metric, I could of 
course duplicate all alert rules, filter by environment label, and set the 
appropriate severity label; very tedious in the long run, but so far the 
only solution that came to my mind,

Are there better ways to achieve this, what am I missing?

Something like the ternary operator would be helpful in this case, e. g.:
  labels:
    severity: environment=="qa" ? "warn" : "page"

Alternativly some kind of "functional if " could solve this as well:
  labels:
    severity: iff(environment=="qa", "warn", "page")
note: depending on the implementation this could cause performance issues 
if the expression engine requires
  evaluation of all parameters passed to the function
