It looks like you are sending alerts to prometheus alert manager through a contact point. We would suggest routing alerts by [setting up an external alertmanager](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/set-up/configure-alertmanager/).

Please make sure you are using this endpoint: [/v1/provisioning/alert-rules/{UID}/export](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/developers/http_api/alerting_provisioning/#span-idroute-get-alert-rule-exportspan-export-an-alert-rule-in-provisioning-file-format-_routegetalertruleexport_) to get the JSON. The JSON returned from the endpoint without the /export is incompatible with file provisioning. How did you...

We recommend using [external alertmanager](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/set-up/configure-alertmanager/) instead of the alertmanager integration. Does this solve your problem?

If you are not using [this tool,](https://github.com/grafana/database-migrator) can you try it and let us know if you are still having problems?
