Overview

Email notification rules allow you to send alerts to specified email addresses when conditions or thresholds in your data streams are met.

These real-time updates keep you informed about critical changes or events, even when you’re away from the platform. For example, an email notification can be triggered when a machine’s temperature exceeds a critical threshold, alerting maintenance staff to take action.

Creating Email Notification Rule

Select the created alert rules, enable the Notify on Deactivation toggle, and specify the notification interval, which determines how frequently emails are sent.
