About alert packs

Predefined sets of alerts, each to be installed individually for a needs-based usage, based on specific queries to warn you about anomalous situations in the context of specific use cases.

...

Visit Alerts and notifications to know more.

Install

Requirements & additional info

Apart from the requirements described in the Required data sources section, certain alerts require the installation of specific lookups for a correct functioning. These lookups will be indicated in the description, displayed in bold inside a Requirements paragraph.

Here you can also find an info button for each alert so that you can check their purpose and a code button to check their queries.

...

How to install

Alert packs cannot be installed collectively and thus the Install button does not appear at the top right of the card. Each of the alerts must be installed individually by clicking the Install button each of them has in the Included alerts section.

...

If you select alerts with different status (installed, uninstalled, or updatable), the bulk actions menu will show all possible actions, but each of them will affect only the alerts with the status for which the action is possible.

Open and navigate

When an alert is installed, the whole alert pack is displayed as installed, now displaying an Open button at the top right of the card.

...

You can also return to the content in Exchange by clicking the back arrow on your browser and, in case it is part of a content pack that you accessed through the Included content section, you can click the back arrow at the top left of the card to go back to the content pack.

...

Update

Requirements & additional info

When a new version of an installed alert is available, an Update button will appear in the corresponding alert row, and the code button will show an icon to indicate changes in the query. Clicking the code button opens a query comparison of the currently installed alert and the updated version, displaying changes in green and red.

In case you have customized the alert query and wish to retain some of the clauses from the old query, we suggest copying it elsewhere using the copy button. This way, you can include them after the update.

...

How to update

As with the installation process, alerts must be updated individually or using bulk actions. To update a single alert, simply click the Update button. To update several alerts, check their boxes and use the menu next to the master checkbox at the top.

...

If you select alerts with different status (installed, uninstalled, or updatable), the bulk actions menu will show all possible actions, but each of them will affect only the alerts with the status for which the action is possible.

Uninstall

As with the installation process, alert packs cannot be installed collectively. You can either uninstall them one by one by making use of their corresponding uninstall buttons or uninstall them in bulk using the multi-select feature (see the installation or update processes above for reference).
