Alert policy does not create incident

I have an NRQL policy with custom parameter (i’m sending from application every 5 mins). Query looks like

SELECT latest(my_param) FROM Transaction

with window duration 10 minutes and streaming method EventTimer=5s

I’ve configured it in a way to receive incident immediately, but even when I see on graphs voilations - no incident was created. Does anyone have any ideas what’s wrong?

Solution

  • Data types. NewRelic has data types. Who could imagine that 0 + 123 + 125 is 0123125 and not 248? Changing query to SELECT latest(numeric(MY_PARAM)) FROM Transaction solved all problems.
