How do I Use Tokens in ipMonitor Alert Templates?
Alerts are fully customizable using ipMonitor Tokens. Simply click on any number of Tokens in the convenient Token selector, and when an Alert is executed, the Tokens will be replaced with dynamic content.
Tokens are grouped into three different categories:
- Monitor Related For example:

| Description | Sample Value Returned |
| %monitorid% | |
| Monitor ID | 589478484027 |

| %monitortag[contact]% | |
| Value of Tag Name Specified: Custom Data for Specific Monitor |
