# How alerts work

> Learn how Gorelo alerts surface asset, uptime, and script issues so you can create tickets, dismiss occurrences, and subscribe to critical notifications.

[Agent Assets](/group-assets-with-tags), [Uptime](/create-an-uptime-check), and [Scripts](/write-and-test-a-script) are all capable of generating Alerts. Once Gorelo generates an Alert, you can either:

1. Create a ticket from it.
2. Dismiss the particular occurrence of the alert.
