I am trying to get alerts with a local timezone as a timestamp and i don't seem to be getting ti right all notifications go out as UTC.. I want to set this in two places in annotations and in my template. But these are just ignored by prometheus. I found this link:
https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/sysadmin/PrometheusAlertTimeFormatting But the link does not explain where do you need to set this exactly. The way i set it in my email template is like this in the alertmanager.yml file: *text*: >- {{ range .Alerts -}} **Time*: {{ .StartsAt.Local.Format "Sat Aug 14 10:15:40 SAST 2021" }} {{ end }} **Alert*:* {{ .Annotations.title }}{{ if .Labels.severity }} - `{{ .Labels.severity }}`{{ end }} **Description*:* {{ .Annotations.description }} **Details*:* {{ range .Labels.SortedPairs }}: *{{ .Name }}:* `{{ .Value }}` {{ end }} {{ end }} I tried annotations in the alerts file as well but these are just flat out ignored. *annotations*: *timestamp*: > *time*: {{ range .Alerts.Firing }} {{ .StartsAt.Local.Format "Sat Aug 14 10:15:40 SAST 2021" }} {{ end }} What am i doing wrong? Has anyone gotten it to work? I am using alertmanager 0.21.0 and Prometheus 2.24.1 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
