Contact Points
Contact points contain the configuration for sending alert notifications. You can assign a contact point either in the alert rule or notification policy options. For a complete explanation on notification policies, refer to the upstream Grafana documentation.
Note
The Grafana operator currently only supports a single receiver per contact point definition. As a workaround you can create multiple contact points with the samespec.name value.
Follow issue #1529 for further updates on this topic.The following snippet shows an example contact point which notifies a specific email address. It also highlights how secrets and config maps can utilized to externalize some of the configuration. This is especially useful for contact points which contain sensitive information.
