ganeshsanap that's not the answer I'm looking for. I explicitly asked for help regarding alerts and getting the notification in my email when changes are made.

jacosta17 Can you try checking using same alert settings in:
- Another document library in same SharePoint site
- Document library in another SharePoint site
- Using another user account for receiving emails
This will help you to narrow down this problem and to understand if the issue is with this specific library or SharePoint site or whole tenant.
