What CGPulse checks

A resource passes this rule when enabled must equal true. Anything else is reported as a finding with the evaluated property value attached as evidence.

How to fix it

Enable the action group to ensure alert notifications reach the right teams. In Azure Portal: Monitor > Action groups > select group > set Status to Enabled. See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/alerts/action-groups

CLI

az monitor action-group update --ids "{id}" --short-name "<short-name>" --action clear

Terraform

resource "azurerm_monitor_action_group" "{name}" {
  name                = "{name}"
  resource_group_name = "{rg}"
  short_name          = "<short-name>"
  enabled             = true
}
