Hi,

What is running here is our alerts plugin which you can learn more about at [Alerting | Kibana Guide [8.0] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/8.0/alerting-getting-started.html)

Please pay attention to the error being logged. You need to run `bin/kibana-encryption-keys generate` and use the generated key to set `xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey` into your `kibana.yml` so this feature can work correctly.

Cheers

Kibana Alerting is a basic feature but the actions are limited to writing to an index or a log with the basic license.

If you want to write to email slack, ServiceNow, pager duty, etc. Those commercial features.

Please see the subscription matrix [here](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions).
