# Contacts

Contacts are the notification recipients available to OmniFabric alert rules.

## Manage contacts

1. Open **OmniFabric > Alerting > Contacts**.
2. Select the action to add a contact.
3. Enter the contact name and the notification details requested by the console.
4. Save the contact.
5. Open an alert rule and select the contact as a recipient.

Keep contact details current and use a name that clearly identifies the responsible person or team. Before removing or disabling a contact, check whether an enabled alert rule still uses it.

Available notification channels and validation requirements are shown in the contact form.
