Dear Community,

 

Now there is a demand, when the alert reaches the condition for more than how many minutes to trigger an event, the way I currently think of is to use Timer to control, but if there are a lot of alerts, will there be performance problems? Or is there a better way to deal with it, thank you!

 

Best Regards,

Chason

I have implemented it by using pause(5000) in the subscription. There are probably more than 200 alerts, but I’m not sure how efficient it is. Thank you！

If we don’t use Workflow, is there any other better way, thank you!

Hi @CZ_9645217 

 

Without more information, we would not be able to respond regarding efficiency.  For example, you mentioned 200 alerts, but how many of these are firing in a given time range?  How often are they evaluated?  

 

You might try looking at Resources > AlertFunctions.  There are services called QueryAlertSummary and QueryAlertSummaryForThing that may be useful for addressing your needs.

 

Please provide more information regarding your use case and we will try to be more definitive.

 

Regards.
