Description
Orgs with many projects have no way to set a single alert that fires when any error—across all projects—exceeds a volume threshold (e.g., >10K occurrences/day). Alerts must be configured per project today, which also means new projects created after setup are not covered.
Current behavior
- Error volume alerts are scoped to a specific project at creation time
- No "all projects" or org-level scope exists for issue alert rules
- Projects created after an alert is configured are not automatically included
Gap
- A single "runaway" error in any project can consume significant quota before anyone notices
- Orgs that spin up new projects regularly have a persistent blind spot: new projects start unmonitored
- The only workaround is manually duplicating alert rules for every project, including retroactively adding new ones
Proposed capability
Support an org-wide alert scope (e.g., all projects — including future) on issue alert rules, so a single rule can fire when any error in any project exceeds a configurable occurrence threshold within a time window.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by locating the existing project-scoped issue alert rule configuration and evaluation flow, then trace how project creation and alert scope are represented. Done means an org-level rule can cover current and future projects and trigger on the stated occurrence threshold within a time window.
