Setting up alarms on error logs - Managed Integrations for AWS IoT Device Management

Setting up alarms on error logs

We recommend setting up a monitoring system on your ERROR logs to alert you of consistent failures. You can use Amazon CloudWatch metric filters and alarms to detect error patterns automatically.

To create an alarm on error logs

  1. Create a metric filter on the /aws/iotmanagedintegrations/EventLog log group that matches error-level log entries.

  2. Create a CloudWatch alarm on the metric filter that triggers when the error count exceeds your threshold.

  3. Configure an Amazon Simple Notification Service topic as the alarm action to receive notifications.
