Limit alerts to multiple tags (using AND)

[fabian-zeindl-oebb]

Current Behavior

At the moment alerts can be limited to a set of tags. Projects need to have at least one of those tags so that the alert is triggered.

Proposed Behavior

Implement a switch "AllOf/AnyOf" that allows the tags to be combined using AND, so that alerts are only sent if ALL of the tags are present.

I am curious what your use-case is. In practice, you could add a tag that represents this AND condition. For example, if you have tags "prod" and "public", but don't want notifications for "prod" and "internal", you could just add a tag "notify" for the first case.

Indeed, the way alerting works now by selecting a tag, that makes it the "notify" tag, even if it is named differently, and it can not really serve another purpose.

If I use tags to describe my projects independent of the notifications, like what belongs to what team, what is deployed where and so on, I am free to configure and reconfigure my alerts in the future.

If I only had a fixed "notify" tag and wanted to change my alerting-logic, I would need to retag all projects.
