# Working with the Alert Builder

The Alert Builder page allows you to manage dataset alerts. From the Alert Builder page, you can:

* View and manage existing alerts across your Data Quality & Observability (self-hosted) environment or at the dataset level.
* Add custom alerts to a dataset for conditions, job statuses, and rule statuses triggered during a job run.
* Add alerts for custom rules.
* Add alerts for breaking adaptive rules.

The following screenshot and table highlight the various elements of the Alert Builder page.
