Scheduled Alert

Mondaya13
Explorer

Hello, I am confused about the "Expires" thing when setting an alert. I have my alert scheduled every day and the expires = 24 hours, does that mean after 24 hours the alert will NOT run no more? Thank you.

The "Expires" setting doesn't stop your alert from running after 24 hours. Your alert will continue to run daily indefinitely; the expiration only prevents repeated triggering within 24 hours of the last trigger, helping to avoid alert fatigue for ongoing issues.

 

Hope this helps.
