What this solves
Lynx Connectors - Prometheus / Alertmanager
Registers a prometheus connector type with the Lynx connector framework and reads the currently-firing alerts from the Alertmanager v2 API (/api/v2/alerts). Grafana unified alerting exposes the same shape, so pointing the endpoint at the Grafana Alertmanager path works without a separate connector.
Auth is site-specific and all three forms are supported: none, a bearer token in Credential Secret, or basic auth via Credential ID and Secret. An optional config_json.matcher label filter narrows the alerts pulled.
Key Features
Prometheus connector type - Alertmanager v2 over HTTPS through the shared REST client.
Active alerts only - silenced and inhibited alerts are excluded, so a suppressed alert never shows as a public outage.
Severity and service labels - each alert carries its severity, service or job, instance and summary for mapping to a component status.
Label matcher - config_json.matcher scopes the pull to one service.
Grafana-compatible - the same API shape serves Grafana unified alerting.
Integrates With
lynx_connectors - registers under the shared framework and reuses its REST client.
lynx_status_page - a status source maps an alert severity to a component status.
