Access the Schedule: Open the Alerts sidebar on the right side of your Count canvas. You'll see the Default alert schedule section.
Choose a Preset: Select a simple schedule from the dropdown options (e.g., Daily, Weekly).
Custom Schedules (Cron Expressions): For more specific timing, choose the Custom option. This allows you to enter a schedule using a cron expression. For example, to send alerts at 8:00 AM on weekdays, you would enter
0 8 * * 1-5
.
Frequency Limit: Alerts can be scheduled to run at a maximum frequency of once per hour. Schedules exceeding this will be rejected.
Scheduled Queries Warning: If your canvas has scheduled queries enabled, a warning will appear if your alert schedule is more frequent than your query schedule.
Caching Considerations: Alerts respect your canvas caching settings. Ensure your alert schedule and caching duration are aligned to prevent alerts from sending outdated results.
