creating alert on metrics if value is greater than zero

Hi ,

 

i want to see if the metrics gets any value or if the value is zero till the end of the day

context is we have an email free form table which has open delivered clicked metrics with few delivery ids 
i am monitoring these metrics if the data si flowing or not sometime the data is not flowing till 9pm everyday 
so i am frequently checking if the values are captured , now i want to create an alert which give me an email if the value is zero till 6pm and another alert saying  if the value is flowing like 1 or 2 it should give me an alert

Hi @dineshpr ,

It is not possible to setup alerts for custom periods, you can look at the entire data of either hour, day, week or month when evaluating rules for triggering alerts. What I'll suggest is to setup two hourly alerts like below (taking cart additions as example metric),

If no data received in last hour:

If any data is received in last hour:

With this you'll receive either first or second alert every hour which you can use to identify if data was received or not during that hour.

I hope this helps.

Cheers!

If you are basically sending emails either way... why not just set up some scheduled reports for the times you need? Rather than setting up an Alert?

This will be better option for your requirement to send an email with status of the metric by 6 PM of the current day. You can setup a very simple report like below,

and schedule it (Share -> Send File) to be delivered everyday at 6 PM, that way it will check current day's data till 6 PM and send an email,

For any data flowing before 6 PM you can still have the second alert that I suggested above for "If any data is received in last hour",

Cheers!
