# How to set up alerts

Alerts are useful to keeping track of when your brand, client's name or other keywords are mentioned in any new newsletter issue or article.

Reletter monitors new issues across its entire database of newsletters. It scans issue titles and content to find matches for your keywords.

First go to your [Alerts](https://reletter.com/account/alerts) configuration page in *My Account*:

![](/files/QoA4eBtWfqUb5EsqeM7o)

Create an alert by entering a keyword or phrase (e.g. "real estate"). You can see a preview of the results as you type.

![](/files/D99yvbBlknLe3ExZRZ00)

If any matching issues are found,  you will now be sent a daily or weekly email containing the most relevant new issues that match your keyword.

## Advanced Search

You use the following search operators to narrow down your results:

| Description            | Example                                 |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
| Either terms can match | `real OR estate`                        |
| Both terms must match  | `real AND estate`                       |
| Exact phrase           | `"real estate"`                         |
| Don't match            | `-investing`                            |
| Grouping               | `(real estate) OR (property investing)` |

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.reletter.com/how-to-set-up-alerts.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
