# 13. Set and manage Alarms

Managing alarms allows users to efficiently monitor and respond to critical events. The platform provides tools to view, categorize, and resolve alarms based on their severity levels, such as Critical, Major, Minor, or Warning. Users can customize these severity levels to align with their operational priorities, ensuring timely action and streamlined workflows. By tailoring alarm settings, notifications, and resolutions, the platform ensures that alarms are both actionable and relevant to your needs.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.g-iot.io/journey-to-getting-started-with-giot/13.-set-and-manage-alarms.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
