Description

Activity log alert rules can now be saved in one of the following EU Data Boundary regions:

  • North Europe
  • West Europe

This capability is avilable when creating a new activity log alert rule. Saving the rule in a European regions ensures that the alert rule metadata and its processing remains within EU Data Boundary. In all other cases you can select the default Global region. 

Note that action groups can also be saved in EU regions. This means combining an EU-based activity log alert rule with an EU-based action group will ensure an end-to-end experience within Europe, encompassing alert evaluation and actions.
