Platform Events

The alerts list displays information under these columns:

The list can be sorted in ascending or descending order by date of last update, through the selectable field Sort.

By clicking on the FILTERS button, it’s possible to filter existing alerts by the following fields:

Alerts are created with notifications enabled by default. However, you can quickly enable or disable notifications through the buttons under the ENABLED column of the list of alerts. Enabled notifications will have hued icons and disabled notifications will have grey icons:

Alerts with disabled notifications will still be on the list of existing alerts and can be enabled any time.

To make the creation of alerts easier and faster, you can clone any existing alert (with or without enabled notifications) by clicking the icon under the OPTIONS column of the Platform Events list. You’ll be taken to the new alert’s configuration screen, where all fields will be filled in with the info of the cloned alert.

To render identification easier, the clone’s name will contain the "- Copy" suffix, but you may edit it, as well as modify any other field you wish, before saving your new alert.

If you click on any column of an alert on the Platform Events page, you are directed to its overview screen, which exhibits the default message sent with triggered notifications:

On it, you can edit event parameters that trigger the alert by clicking the edit icon , delete the alert by clicking and quickly enable/disable it by clicking the Enabled button.

The screen also displays the ACTIONS box, which contains the notification channels, with details (icon: ), options to add an action if it hasn’t been configured (), edit it () or delete it ().

Then, click the edit icon . You’ll be redirected to a page similar to the alert’s registration screen and will be able to make your modifications. The only information that can’t be modified is the object monitored. In this case, you can delete the existing alert and create a new one for the object you want to monitor.

To edit the actions that follow an alert being triggered (that is, the notification channels used), interact with the items in the Actions block, as in this example:

To delete an alert, go to the alert’s overview screen by clicking the alert’s row on the list of Platform Events. Then, click the icon .
