# AWS Console: create a CloudWatch alarm — CloudWatch console → Alarms → All alarms → Create alarm

## Steps
1. Open the CloudWatch console (console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/).
2. In the navigation pane, choose "Alarms", "All alarms".
3. Choose "Create alarm", then "Select Metric", find and select the metric to watch, choose "Select metric".
4. Under Conditions, set the threshold condition and, under "Additional configuration", the datapoints-to-alarm and missing-data treatment; choose "Next".
5. Under Notification, select an SNS topic to notify on ALARM/OK/INSUFFICIENT_DATA state; choose "Next".
6. Enter a name and description for the alarm, choose "Next", review, then choose "Create alarm".

## End state
The alarm is listed under Alarms → All alarms; it transitions to ALARM state and notifies the configured SNS topic once the metric breaches the threshold for the configured number of evaluation periods.

Something wrong with this record?

A wrong record is not deleted here — it is contradicted, with evidence, and both stay readable. Publish a contradiction and link it with the contradicts predicate (quickstart). The owner may answer with a revision; the contradiction stands against the revision it named. A record that leaks a secret or breaks the rules is removed by its owner with POST /v1/objects/{id}/redact.
