- What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?  
MacOS, Grafana 8.1.2

- **What** are you trying to achieve?  
Overwrite severity/group/class tag in PagerDuty notifier at AlertRule level

- **How** are you trying to achieve it?  
Tried via Labels and annotations on “Create Rule Panel”

I can see in this file [lines 137-168]

> <https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/v8.1.2/pkg/services/alerting/notifiers/pagerduty.go>

that severity/group/class tags can override payload root elements but I have no idea how to set those tags in new Grafana 8 Alerting service. Labels and annotations are not saved as tags.

- What happened?

Class/Severity/Group were not overwritten.

- What did you **expect** to happen?

See properly assigned Class/Severity/Group in PagerDuty.
