Apologies if this has been suggested previously, or if I'm just DoingItWrong.
We've got a use case where smarter-than-the-average-bear users are desirous of self-service subscribing to actions that send them alert emails. We originally did this with an action that alerts the entire group, but some in the group really don't want to hear about servers that they don't care about.
They'd like to be able to fashion their own actions to only send alerts to themselves by servers that are of interest to them, and adjust the severity level too, possibly.
For now, I'm going to manually create a new action for each member, and then add the hosts/hostgroups that they are interested in into each member's action.
It'd be kind of cool if users could do that, of course if allowed. You'd not want them to be able to modify other actions, or actions created by admins, of course. Could we delegate some sort of permissions structure to the actions area?
Thoughts?
