What permissions do I need?

To access the Alerts configuration area and edit alerts, you need the Manage level of the Alert configuration permission (see a detailed descriptions of the alerts permissions here).

Additionally, you need to have alerts assigned with Manage access (see Assign resources to a role).

Editing the settings

You can modify an alert in the Edit Alert Definition window, which you can open by clicking the ellipsis menu and selecting Edit, as shown in the picture below. Once you have made the necessary changes, click Save to apply them.

In this window, you can modify Summary, Description, and Priority Priority, Timezone, and Sending policy, as well as the Query that sets the alert conditions or and some of the parameters inherent to the triggering method (see table below). However, you cannot change the name, category, subcategory, or triggering method itself.

Editing the query

To change the alert query, simply make the necessary changes in the Query area. Here you can modify the operations performed as well as the source table.

Alternatively, you can open the alert query in the search window to make the necessary changes there by clicking the Edit in search window window button above the query. When you finish, select Options menu → Set query change in alert (or the button on the toolbar) to go back to the Edit Alert Definition window.
