Before you think about dashboards or alerts, the first thing you need to 
decide is where this data is coming from and how you are collecting it. For 
example: if you are parsing web server logs, then you need to increment 
counters for different status codes. grok_exporter or mtail can help you 
with that. If you want to make active tests (probes) of a remote webserver, 
then something like blackbox_exporter can help you, and it returns the http 
status code as one of its metrics.

It's unclear what problem it is you are having.

If the webserver itself returns a 502 error, then it will log the fact that 
it has done so, just like any other response.  Equally, if 
blackbox_exporter gets a 502 response from a webserver, then it will report 
it as a 502.  Both cases are suitable for reporting and alerting.
