Saved Search Scheduling

I have a saved search which is scheduled but it is not showing and not running at the scheduled time.

It's usually nice to actually ask a question after reporting the current state.

Typically if the search is properly defined and scheduled but is not being run, the issue is with resources. Are you sure your SH(C) is not overloaded and you have no delayed/skipped searches? Did you check scheduler's logs?

Hi @Siddharthnegi ,

is this savedsearch an alert or a report?

is this savedsearch shared at least at app level or private?

are you sure that the savedsearch has results?

please, make a test modifying the savedsearch assuting that there will be at least one result and see what happens.

Ciao.

Hi @Siddharthnegi ,

in the test, be sure that the time period is the same at the scheduled time.

Then, do you know in what app it's located?

so you can search it, if you don't know the app, you could search it on SSH in savedsearches.conf files.

Ciao.
