5. In the Add Action Policy dialog box, enter an ID and a Name.

6. On the Primary Action Policy tab, create the action policy.

   2. Configure the conditions for triggering alerts, and then click Confirm.

      Parameter	Description	Example
      Condition	Valid values: All: The system runs the action group only if every alert in the set meets all conditions. Any: The system runs the action group if at least one alert in the set meets all conditions.	All
      Conditional expression	Alerts that match a conditional expression are processed based on the action policy. You can specify an object, an operator, and an object value for the conditional expression.	Object: Alibaba Cloud Account ID Operator: Equal to Object value: 154035569884****
      Mode	You can add multiple conditions in standard mode or advanced mode. Valid values: Standard Mode: All conditions are joined by the AND operator.
