# Configuring Alerts

When an action is taken by Nightfall policy on a sensitive item, you can be notified by an alert. You can configure who or where alerts must go when a violation occurs and action is taken.

In addition to [reviewing alerts in the Nightfall console](https://help.nightfall.ai/~/changes/OeQHuIkWUMEvfotVM6p8/nightfall-for-slack/broken-reference), you can receive alert notifications across multiple destinations like: 

* [Slack alerts](https://help.nightfall.ai/~/changes/OeQHuIkWUMEvfotVM6p8/nightfall-for-slack/slack/slack-alerts)
* [Email alerts](https://help.nightfall.ai/~/changes/OeQHuIkWUMEvfotVM6p8/nightfall-for-slack/broken-reference)
* [Webhooks](https://help.nightfall.ai/~/changes/OeQHuIkWUMEvfotVM6p8/nightfall-for-slack/slack/webhooks)
* [Jira Tickets](https://help.nightfall.ai/~/changes/OeQHuIkWUMEvfotVM6p8/nightfall-for-slack/slack/jira-tickets)
