How to get an alert-summary for all the Things

[tcoufal]

Hi Guys,

I have a simple question. I would like to create a dashboard mashup which would notify me on existing alerts (via repeater widget I guess). Very same as the Alert Summary monitor in ThingWorx itself.

But the service GetAlertSummary is Thing-driven (referenced). So far as I know there's no service which would return all the active alerts for all the Things implemented. Or is there? What is the best practice solution for this. With performance in mind?

Thanks a lot for any input.

Hi

Just reverse engineer the OOTB Alerts mashup... find the System Mashup MonitoringAlertSummary and duplicate it... now you can see all of the services that uses. The main one is QueryAlertSummary which isn't Thing Based, but you do have options for acknowledged or not...

The Alert History mashup uses the service QueryAlertHistory..

Hope this helps

regards

Ian
