## Provisioning support for alert notifiers
## Provisioning support for alert notifiers
Grafana now added support for provisioning alert notifiers from configuration files. Allowing operators to provision notifiers without using the UI or the API. A new field called `uid` has been introduced which is a string identifier that the administrator can set themselves. Same kind of identifier used for dashboards since v5.0. This feature makes it possible to use the same notifier configuration in multiple environments and refer to notifiers in dashboard json by a string identifier instead of the numeric id which depends on insert order and how many notifiers that exists in the instance.
