Activating the SAP Alert Notification service

Before you can configure and use the SAP Alert Notification service, you must activate it for SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP). You assign and initialize the service to your SAP BTP subaccount in a Cloud Foundry environment. In your subaccount, you must perform the following steps:

1. Log on to your SAP BTP global account and select the subaccount where you created the migration target SAP HANA Cloud database instance.
2. On the Entitlements tab, check that the alert notification service is assigned the standard service plan.
3. On the Cloud Foundry Environment tab, check that the Cloud Foundry environment is already created. If the Cloud Foundry environment isn't created, choose Enable Cloud Foundry. Through the link Enabling Cloud Foundry | SAP Help Portal, you get a detailed description of how to enable the Cloud Foundry Environment in SAP BTP.
4. When the Cloud Foundry Environment is created, create a space for the alert notification service. Through the link Create a space in your Cloud Foundry environment, you get a detailed description of how to create a Cloud Foundry space.
5. In the navigation panel, choose Instances and Subscriptions.
6. In the Instances and Subscriptions screen, choose Create.
7. In the New instance or Subscription scriptions dialog, to see all the service options, choose drop-down list.
8. In the drop-down list, choose Alert Notification.
9. In the Instance Name input field, enter AlertNotificationService as a name.
10. To create the alert notification instance, choose Create.

It takes a few moments for the alert notification instance to create and activate. When the Status changes to created, you can start configuring the alert notification service.
