 - Alertmanager has the ability of group similar alerts together and fire only one event, clubbing all the alerts data into one event. `calert` leverages this and sends all alerts in one message by looping over the alerts and passing data in the template. You can configure the rules for grouping the alerts in `alertmanager.yml` config. You can read more about it [here](https://github.com/prometheus/docs/blob/master/content/docs/alerting/alertmanager.md#grouping)
