Using Scheduled Alerts

To set up alerts you must create an alert group. When end-users save a query as an alert, they must select an alert group for their alert.

Note: For incremental alerts, you may also need to change the offset time for the alert. The offset is needed because there is a lag between analysis (the document processing) and saving the documents to the index. For details, see Define timestamp offsets for incremental alerts (Optional).
