GCP Monitoring Notification Channel

A Google Cloud Monitoring Notification Channel specifies where and how Cloud Monitoring delivers alert notifications—for example via email, SMS, Cloud Pub/Sub, Slack or PagerDuty. Each channel stores the configuration necessary for a particular medium (address, webhook URL, Pub/Sub topic name, etc.) and can be referenced by one or more alerting policies. For full details, see the official Google documentation: https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/support/notification-options

gcp-pub-sub-topic​

If the notification channel’s type is pubsub, the channel references a specific Cloud Pub/Sub topic where alert messages are published. Overmind therefore links the notification channel to the corresponding gcp-pub-sub-topic resource so that you can trace how alerts propagate into event-driven workflows or downstream systems.
