Notifications from Yandex Cloud

Yandex Cloud technical support notifies you of events that affect all Yandex Cloud users or your account specifically. To additionally receive notifications about your resources, subscribe to Service notifications in your cloud or folder.

Notification typesNotification types

You can receive notifications for the entire cloud or individual folders.

Cloud notificationsCloud notifications

By default, notifications about upcoming maintenance and notifications from services in the cloud are sent to all cloud owners, i.e., users with the resource-manager.clouds.owner role. Organization owners (organization-manager.organizations.owner) do not receive any notifications about their organization's clouds by default. They should subscribe to such notifications themselves. You can add cloud notification recipients in Service notifications.

Cloud notifications contain the following information:

• Cloud ID and name
• Folder ID and name
• Resource ID and name

Cloud notifications are only sent to cloud subscribers. Users subscribed to folder notifications do not receive notifications for the parent cloud.

Folder notificationsFolder notifications

By default, notifications about folder resources are sent to users subscribed to parent cloud notifications and cloud owners (resource-manager.clouds.owner). Organization owners (organization-manager.organizations.owner) do not receive any notifications about their organization's cloud folders by default. They should subscribe to such notifications themselves. You can add folder notification recipients in the folder settings.

Folder notifications include information about the following resources:

• Virtual machines (VM ID)
• Virtual disks (disk ID)
• MDB clusters (cluster ID)

Folder notifications are sent to both folder subscribers and parent cloud subscribers. Please note that it is not possible to identify the folder for some types of resources. Therefore, we recommend subscribing important recipients to cloud notifications.

Scheduled maintenanceScheduled maintenance

Some Yandex Cloud maintenance operations may affect the performance or availability of your resources. Technical support sends notification of such activities 3 calendar days in advance by email, indicating:

• Date and time of maintenance.
• Category of maintenance.
• Yandex Cloud services affected.
• Description of relevant changes to the services.
• Tips on how to reduce the impact of maintenance on your resources (if possible).

If there is a Yandex Cloud failure that can potentially affect the security or availability of your data, our support team will notify you by email as soon as the scope and impact of the problem are identified. Failure notifications will be sent to the subscribers of the folder hosting the affected resource.

Our support team does not send notifications about platform incidents. You can check the availability of services on the platform component status page or follow the announcements in our Telegram channel.
