# Manage Control Center Alerts and History for Confluent Platform

You can access alerts, triggers, actions, and alert history from **Alerts Overview**.
The features you can access depend on what [mode](../overview.md#control-center-modes)
you are running Control Center in.

## Alerts overview

To access the **Alerts Overview** page, click the **Alerts** bell icon in the top banner.

## Alerts history

To access **Alerts History**, click the Alerts ![bell](images/c3-alerts-bell-icon.png) icon in the top banner.

**Alerts** opens to **History** by default. The page is blank when there
isn’t any triggered history yet.

After actions have been triggered, **History** shows a summary of triggers
that caused an action to be executed.

In the history, the table shows the name of the trigger that fired, its status, the cluster ID, condition, component type,
and the name or ID of the component, as well as the start and end time.
