Hi @splunkdivya,

Seems like you have a duplicate configuration for your send email modular alert action.

Have a read here in case you don't know how modular alerts work :
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/latest/AdvancedDev/ModAlertsIntro

In order to resolve this, search on your SH for alert_actions.conf and identify the location of the duplicate send email action. Once that's done all you have to do is get rid of it and you'll be back to a single action.

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,
David
