# Incident Management

The Incidents page is designed to help your team stay on top of open incidents and collaborate on resolving them. It provides a comprehensive overview of all current and past incidents, where users can view the status, prioritize, assign, and resolve incidents.

## Incidents list

Incidents are organized in a grouped table with three sections: **Open**, **Acknowledged**, and **Resolved**. Each group header shows a count of incidents and a breakdown by severity.

</Frame>

The table columns include:

* **Severity** — editable inline via dropdown
* **Incident** — title, with a "Merged" chip for incidents containing multiple monitors
* **First Event** / **Last Event** — when the incident started and when the last failure occurred
* **Monitors** — status chips showing pass/fail/warning counts
* **Assignee** — editable inline, searchable dropdown
* **Status** — editable inline

Columns can be toggled on or off via the column menu. You can sort by severity, first event, last event, monitor count, or assignee.

## Filtering

The incidents page provides several ways to scope your view:

* **Search** — full-text search across incident titles
* **Filters** — severity, assignee, owner, database/schema/table, critical asset, and monitor count
* **Quick filters** — preset combinations for common views:
  * **Unassigned** — incidents with no assignee
  * **High priority** — unassigned incidents with High or Critical severity
  * **Critical Assets** — incidents on assets marked as critical
  * **Merged** — incidents with more than one monitor (result of a merge)
* **Days back** — adjust the time window (default: 3 days)
* **Tree selection** — select a folder, asset, or test in the left navigation tree to scope the list

## Incident detail

Clicking an incident row opens a detail drawer on the right side of the screen.

### Header

The top of the drawer shows the incident title, metadata chips (assignee, status, severity), duration, and the number of failing monitors. You can also:

* Edit the title
* Add or edit a summary
* Link or create tickets (Jira, Linear, ServiceNow, etc.)

### Tabs

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Lineage">
    An interactive lineage graph showing the upstream and downstream assets related to all monitors in the incident. Use the hop controls to expand or collapse the graph.

    </Frame>
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Monitors">
    A list of monitor cards — each showing the test name, asset, status, owners, and timestamps.

    When an incident contains multiple monitors, you can select monitors and click **Detach** to [split them into separate incidents](/cloud/features/alerts-and-incidents/incident-merging#splitting-incidents-undo-a-merge).

    </Frame>
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Timeline">
    A chronological feed of all events in the incident's history: status and severity changes, alerts sent (with destination links), monitors added or removed, tickets linked, and more.

    <Frame caption="Incident detail — Timeline tab">
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/elementary/7DFNixRFTAhkEl-2/pics/cloud/incident_detail_timeline.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=7DFNixRFTAhkEl-2&q=85&s=c502e27e903333fd2918605d96b8f5a1" alt="Incident detail — Timeline tab" width="767" height="910" data-path="pics/cloud/incident_detail_timeline.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Bulk actions

Select multiple incidents using the checkboxes in the list to perform bulk operations via the floating action menu:

* Change **status**, **severity**, or **assignee** for all selected incidents at once
* **Merge** selected incidents into one — see [Incident merging](/cloud/features/alerts-and-incidents/incident-merging)

<Frame caption="Bulk action menu for selected incidents">

</Frame>

## Ticketing

From the incident detail drawer, you can:

* **Create a ticket** in your connected ticketing tool (Jira, Linear, ServiceNow)
* **Attach an existing ticket** by ID or URL
* **Detach a ticket** from the incident

When a ticket is linked, its status is shown in the drawer. If `close_linked_ticket_on_incident_resolve` is enabled, resolving the incident will also close the linked ticket.

## Incident settings

Click the **gear icon** on the incidents page to access incident settings. Currently this includes [auto-merge rules](/cloud/features/alerts-and-incidents/incident-merging#auto-merge-rules) for automatically grouping related incidents.
