Team, Is there anyway to monitor the ML jobs running and send alerts?

Hi @rajuleo!

You can monitor ML jobs and send alerts using [Watcher](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/watcher-ui.html).

Some things you can look at:

- Job results - set thresholds for scores
- Job messages - look for warnings and error messages
- Job statuses - check if job status is `opened` and memory status is `ok`

You can do all these using the [HTTP Input for Watcher](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.4/input-http.html) to call [ML APIs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.4/ml-apis.html), except for the job messages which you'll have to query from the `.ml-notifications*` index pattern.
