Create alert rule

Creates a new alert rule in your account, using the provided POST data. The `Edit alert rules` permission is required to create an alert rule. Note: Assigning an alert rule to a test during creation requires the `Edit tests` permission.

### Example

* Bearer Authentication (BearerAuth):

```python
import thousandeyes_sdk.alerts
from thousandeyes_sdk.alerts.models.rule import Rule
from thousandeyes_sdk.alerts.models.rule_detail_update import RuleDetailUpdate
from thousandeyes_sdk.alerts.rest import ApiException
from pprint import pprint

# Defining the host is optional and defaults to https://api.thousandeyes.com
# See configuration.py for a list of all supported configuration parameters.
configuration = thousandeyes_sdk.core.Configuration(
    host = "https://api.thousandeyes.com"
)

# The client must configure the authentication and authorization parameters
# in accordance with the API server security policy.
# Examples for each auth method are provided below, use the example that
# satisfies your auth use case.

# Configure Bearer authorization: BearerAuth
configuration = thousandeyes_sdk.core.Configuration(

    api_instance = thousandeyes_sdk.alerts.AlertRulesApi(api_client)
    rule_detail_update = thousandeyes_sdk.alerts.RuleDetailUpdate() # RuleDetailUpdate | 
    aid = '1234' # str | A unique identifier associated with your account group. You can retrieve your `AccountGroupId` from the `/account-groups` endpoint. Note that you must be assigned to the target account group. Specifying this parameter without being assigned to the target account group will result in an error response. (optional)

    try:
        # Create alert rule
        api_response = api_instance.create_alert_rule(rule_detail_update, aid=aid)
