Signals Alerting
1

Hi Team,
I need to send the alert id along with the alert to Netcool, however there is no way to apply search query in alerts on .signals index.

Kindly suggest some workaround.

Hi Ankita,

the .signals index is usually not meant to be searched for security reasons. It can contain data from different tenants that might be sensitive.

Could you explain the reason why you need to search the index? This way, we could try to find workarounds.

Hi Nils,
Apologies for delay in response.

I need to extract the watches list along with the thresholds set in the watches. Is there any way to fetch this data?

Please suggest.

You can use this API to search for watches and to get the JSON code:
