Is it possible to use Prometheus alerting in instant messaging such as Whatsapp or Telegram?

My question is if we can use the alerts part of Prometheus to show them in Whatsapp or some kind of instant messaging.

Thank you very much from a newbie in this.

it seems there are a lot of projects to connect telegram, many docker based but none of them is just that easy to setup anyway. Just as an example

Telegram support just made it into the alertmanager itself. The configuration part is already documented.

You ask about "some kind of instant messaging." Alert manager does not have a native integration for WhatsApp, but it does for the Slack instant messaging platform.

Info in the docs: https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/latest/configuration/#slack_config
