Hi Pradeep,

This issue is resolved ,it was an issue with FailureType dimension under alert conditions.
i was selecting a specific failureType and the alert condition was not matching, fixed it by selecting '*' all failureType option.

Thanks

@SafwanHussain-9154,

Make sure you have configured the alert correctly. Could you please cross check if the fields such as "alert criteria" are entered correctly.

I am able to successfully configured alerts on supported metrics in Data Factory.

Select Monitor > Alerts & metrics on the Data Factory monitoring page to get started.

And successfully able to receive the alert notification for the same.

Reference: Azure Data Factory - Alerts

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.

Answer 3

Will you help me to understand?

When I am debugging a pipeline, is there a reason why my alerts doesn't get trigger and no metrics are showing up?

I took my time to create an alert for each criteria, plus I created metrics for each criteria.

I even took the time to create pipelines that will fail and succeed. However, whatever I do, I don't see any reaction from the alerts or the metrics.

How can I test in Data Factory so I can see the alert rules and metrics be triggered?

Alerts are not triggered on debug mode. when pipeline is run by triggers alerts are shooting.
