Alert entity references
Setting up alert types and curious if those referenced in the documentation is generic for all supported devices? Trying to set up the following power supply threshold as an example to test alert and notification. Just little confused on the required syntax for entity. Meaning, does Observium know what "power" is regardless of the device and by the looks of the graph it measures in "watts".

I don't quite understand the question :D
"power" is an Observium sensor class, and is measured in Watts. The sensor class is set by the code which discovers the sensor.
We would very, very much recommend not trying to create individual alert checks, because that would be insane. Use the thresholding, as shown in the examples.

Garrett,
"equals power" is not correct; should be "sensor_class equals power".
