Alert action that will change custom property value

sirpaw

Hi,

I have read here in thwack that this feature in advance alerts used to exist, where an alert action can change the value of a custom property for that alerted node. Was this feature deprecated in v.10.1?

Thanks.

Can't say I've ever seen that feature (although we skipped v10.1).

If I was to do that now I'd probably use:
${SQL:UPDATE Nodes SET MyProperty = ${StatisticData} WHERE NodeID = ${Node.NodeID} }

If you stuck that in an email or event log action I'm pretty sure it'd execute along with any output you would want.

Actually, this is a valid action for Basic Alerts: Change Custom Property. I have no idea why it never found its way to Advanced Alerts but there you have it. However, I very much like Andy's suggestion. Not as quick and convenient as you see it in Basic Alerts but at least it's an easy workaround.

Thanks Andy and Quang..i forgot the SQL option in event log actions..i'll certainly use this in our advance alerts. Thanks again, really appreciate it.
