Root cause has been isolated to an issue in one of our dependent services which was impacting creation of metric alert for logs. To address this issue we have deployed a fix in all regions except Central Canada and Central India. Alert creation is now working as expected in the remaining regions. Some customers may still experience issues while creating metric alert for logs in the mentioned regions and we estimate 4 hours before all issues are addressed.
