# View alerts for a synthetic monitor

View all the current active alerts for your monitors.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_sow\_synthetics.synthetics\_viewer, sn\_sow\_synthetics.synthetics\_editor, sn\_sow\_synthetics.synthetics\_admin

## About this task

You can view open alerts from all your monitors by selecting the **Open Alerts** card on the synthetic monitoring home page. To view a single alert, select the alert link from the resulting list.

To view alerts for a specific monitor, follow this procedure.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Service Operations Workspace** and select the synthetic monitoring icon \(\[Omitted image "sys-mon-icon.png"\] Alt text: Synthetic monitoring\).

2.  Select a monitor from the list of all monitors and then select the **Alerts** tab.

    The **Alerts** tab shows the alerts for the monitor. Select an alert to view details.

    **Note:** The alert shows the impacted service associated with the monitor. If for some reason this field isn't populated, see [Impacted Service not appearing in alerts](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-operations-management/troubleshoot-related-services.md).
