hi

what is the syntax of the custom condition search

I have a search like

earliest=-5m  heartbeat | stats count

I want it to run a script when count=0

I tried "if custom condition is met" then for value I put "|where count=0"

but the alert triggered even though count was one

I can't find the documentatino about "if custom condition is met" otherwise I would have looked there

thanks,

Set up your alert like this:

[your alert]
...
alert_condition = where count=0
counttype = custom
...
search = earliest=-5m heartbeat | stats count
