Alerts are not firing

Question

Alert created based on storage account queue message count is not firing
As i made the threshold as 300 in 1 hour
After the creation of Alert it fired but later it is not firing
am i Right it is due to Queue message is not going lesser then 300 i.e., after the Alert creation the queue message count is more then 300
Can you please help me with the process to notify the alert every hour with the count of messages present in it

Hi,

Azure Metric Alerts have the feature State feature. This means that if the threshold is met again after alert was already fired it will not create a new alert instance. If you want to avoid that behavior and every time the threshold is met to create a new alert instance you need to turn off "Automatically resolve alerts" upon alert creation or change the setting post creation. This setting is available in Details tab -> advanced options when you create metric alert.
