          Hi Adam,

           

          As i mentioned earlier description were showing up before the upgrade. Even in the alert we have description field, but its not getting polulated. Also we have some dns issues hence we need to go with ip. So please help me with the code to enable description back.

           

          sample of alert added, where it shows description field is blank

          Observium is not intended to have devices added by IP address. If you add devices by hostname, the hostname will be displayed in alerts.

          Alert notifications have very restricted character length, and generally don't show the entity description.

          actually we have hostname mentioned in the description which is require to identify the device, just with the ip its not feasible to understand which device is giving alert. hence please help me with the setting to enable description field in the alert via teams webhook and mail.
