    Hi Gourav,

     

    The cmdlet you are using is for classic metric alerts in Azure Monitor. Classic metric alerts didn't support action groups and used a custom notification mechanism. 

    We don't yet have PowerShell cmdlets for newer metric alerts. We are actively working on those and will provide an announcement once they are ready. 

     

    In the meanwhile, if you are trying to create metric alerts, you can use Azure CLI to automate creating alerts. You can also create action groups through CLI as well. 

     

     

    If you trying to create log alerts based on Kusto queries, today the only way to automate it is through ARM templates. The PS cmdlets and CLI are being worked  on, but are not available yet.

     

    Regards,
    Snehith

Hi there!

I just checked the site you recommended and still no news about PowerShell commands to support the new V2 alerts..

But yes, on the 28th of March there was the "https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/classic-alerting-migration/" announce.

Just waiting for this, to update my monitoring scripts.

 

Regards, Pedro.
