# Test Alert Endpoint

The test alert endpoint allows you to create alerts with different values in the system. This will then trigger the full alert workflow for those alerts. If configured, you should receive new webhook calls, alerts in the front end, or emails notification.\
\
Please note, this will only be available to you once you have completed on boarding. <br>
