To set up automatic alert for a project, you can:
1. Log in to [https://vstorage.console.vngcloud.vn](https://vstorage.console.vngcloud.vn/storage/list).
2. In the project that needs to set Usage alert, select the icon then select **Usage alert** and continue to select **Configure Usage alert**.
3. At the **Usage alert** configuration screen , set up the necessary parameters for **Usage alert**. Specifically:
* Set **Quota Unit:** you can choose 1 of 2 types of units including **GB** or **Percent**.
* Set **Quota Threshold** or **Quota Remain:** If you choose **Quota Unit** as **Percent** , here you will enter the percentage of usage threshold that when reached will trigger the usage alert. If you choose **Quota Unit** as **GB** , here you will enter the remaining quota that when reached will trigger the usage alert.
4. Enable **Usage alert** at the icon . When this icon becomes it means you have successfully enabled **Usage alert.**
