Description
I am using the Chronograf UI to build alert rules and create tickscripts. Here I am registering alert handlers:

However, when I use the API or the kapacitor cli, no handlers are listed for this topic:


I expect the kapacitor api and/or the cli to be able to have knowledge of the handlers registered in the chronograf UI

Research direction
Start by reproducing the topic-handler registration in the Chronograf UI, then compare the handlers returned by the Kapacitor API and CLI. Trace how the UI registration is represented across those entry points; the issue is done when handlers registered in Chronograf are visible through both the API and CLI.
