Returns currently loaded rules
GET {{baseUrl}}/rules?type=alert
The /rules API endpoint returns a list of alerting and recording rules that are currently loaded. In addition it returns the currently active alerts fired by the Prometheus instance of each alerting rule.
As the /rules endpoint is fairly new, it does not have the same stability guarantees as the overarching API v1.
