Alert on Pending Updates
Hi, We've set up several onpremise servers with the Azure Arc agent, to allow us to manage updates via Azure Update Manager. I'd like to get a mail notification with pending updates before the main...
- The alert rule is based on Azure Monitor log alerts, which evaluate queries at fixed intervals (minimum 5 minutes, maximum 1 day).
- The Single event (preview) option is meant for one-time triggers, but it’s not fully editable yet, which is why you’re seeing the missing query editor and save button.
You may try the workaround below:
1. Keep the alert rule daily
2. Use an Action Group with an Azure Automation Runbook or Logic App that:
-
- Filters alerts based on timestamp or custom logic
- Sends email only if it’s within your desired 2-week window
This way, the alert fires daily, but the notification logic is controlled downstream.
