Here's how to do it

  1. Go to Settings and select Alarms.

  2. Open the Notifications tab.

  3. Click Create New Notification.

  4. Select the alarm to which the notification will be linked.

  5. Enter a name for the alert.

  6. Select the channels on which the alert should be sent.

  7. Select which alarm events should trigger the alert.

  8. Select how long the alarm must be active before the alert is sent in "Send alert after."

  9. Leave the Alert status set to Enabled. If you select Blocked, you can enter a date in the "Blocked until" field. If the date is left blank, the alert remains blocked until you reactivate it.

  10. Click Create.

Select alarm events

You can set alerts for these events:

  • Activated
    : When the data point goes outside defined limits and the alarm is triggered.

  • Normalized
    : When the data point returns within defined limits.

  • Acknowledged
    : When the alarm is acknowledged by a user.

Use "Send alert after" if you want to avoid alerts for short-term and temporary deviations.
