Alert button missing?

[Deleted]

Hi all, i'm wondering where i am going wrong.

I've got a "log search" query setup

Perf
| where ( ObjectName == "Processor" )
| where CounterName == "% Processor Time"
| where CounterValue  >= 80

and i can't find the alert button as described here: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/msoms/2016/09/08/how-to-generate-an-alert-in-microsoft-oms-when-...

which  was supposed to be here:

There is no alert button. Must have been phased out? a Free-tier thing?

Thanks

Hi

the alert button is there. I would assume that you do not have permissions. May be you are read-only user. Also the query you've wrote is not good for alerting. It is better to summarize on metric value. Similar example you can find here:
