What exactly constitutes an incident?

In GCP, Cloud Monitoring opens an incident when a condition of an alerting policy has been met.

To see a list of incidents, do the following:

  1. In the Cloud Console toolbar, click  Navigation menu, and then select Monitoring
  2. In the Monitoring navigation pane, select  Alerting:
    • The Summary pane lists the number of open incidents.
    • The Incidents pane displays the most recent incidents. To hide closed incidents in the table, click Hide closed incidents.
