# Open the New alert rule page

A clear, descriptive name is the first thing responders see when an alert fires. A good name tells them immediately what’s wrong without opening the alert details.

In this milestone, you’ll open the **New alert rule** page and name your rule.

1. In the main menu, click **Alerting &gt; Alert rules**.
2. Open **New alert rule**. If QuickPizza installation redirects you to the dashboards folder, open the form again.
3. If QuickPizza installation redirects you to the dashboards folder, reopen **New alert rule**.
4. In **Name**, enter **QuickPizza high error rate**.

Your rule has a clear name. Next, you write the query in Code mode.
