Google Groups can be used for Cloud Monitoring Notification Channel?

Dear Experts,

we have created google group with 4-5 team members, our group email address name showing as xyz@clientname.com

can we use this email-id to the Monitoring notification? all the team members under this group will receive an email alert? or we need to use only DL(Email-Distribution list) to get the notifications?

kindly provide your inputs

Regards,

Balaji

yes you can use group email address as the notification channel for an alerting policy, then configure the group to accept mail from "alerting-noreply@google.com".
For detailed information you can refer to this documentation on Creating notification channel [1].
