"run a script" action is deprecated i.e. alerts that triggered scripts to run .Custom alert actions have replaced them and can do the same and more, with a better user experience.If you have a scripted alert that you want to convert, try following these docs to create an alert action using the script you already have. http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/AdvancedDev/ModAlertsIntro
