How to delete a stale alert in Log analytics?
I have deleted an alert rule without disabling it. But it is still firing alerts continously and filling up mail box. Is there a way to check stale alert in the background and delete it permanently ?...
Metric measurement alert rules create an alert for each object in a query with a value that exceeds a specified threshold and specified trigger condition. Unlike Number of results alert rules, Metric measurement alert rules work when analytics result provides a time series. They have the following distinct differences from Number of results alert rules.
Aggregate function: Determines the calculation that is performed and potentially a numeric field to aggregate. For example, count() returns the number of records in the query, avg(CounterValue) returns the average of the CounterValue field over the interval. Aggregate function in query must be named/called: AggregatedValue and provide a numeric value.
Group Field: A record with an aggregated value is created for each instance of this field, and an alert can be generated for each. For example, if you wanted to generate an alert for each computer, you would use by Computer. In case, there are multiple group fields specified in alert query, user can specify which field to be used to sort results by using the Aggregate On (metricColumn) parameter
