Suppress alerts not working
- Sep 29, 2020
PatrikHansson I believe the suppression rule is for the action group, and not so much for the alert panel. I have it on an action group, and only get spammed once an hour (with 60m suppression), but the alert panel shows all the events.

Ah, of course. Missed it in the docs here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/alerts-log
"Choose if you want to suppress rule actions for a time after an alert is fired, use the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/alerts-unified-log#state-and-resolving-alerts option. The rule will still run and create alerts but actions won't be triggered to prevent noise. Mute actions value must be greater than the frequency of alert to be effective."
But to be fair none of the docs pages I looked at looks like the Alert Rule page looks nowadays.
