How to fetch the AlarmTreeID of an alarm ?

I'm getting warnings when I validate my old automations in DM version 10.5 about the arguments to SetAlarmStateMessage.

If I read the warnings correctly they indicate that I should rather use AlarmTreeID instead of the combination DataMinerID and AlarmID when I call SetAlarmStateMessage

SetAlarmStateMessage(AlarmTreeID, AlarmUserStatus, String)

vs

SetAlarmStateMessage(DataMinerID, AlarmID, AlarmUserStatus, String)

My question is how do I get the AlarmTreeID for an alarm?

Hi Jan-Terje

I believe the following will be a good read: Preparing scripts and connectors for Swarming | DataMiner Docs
It nicely differentiates between the different definitions, this includes AlarmTreeID.

I'm guessing the script might have gotten triggered via a correlation rule, you'll notice the AlarmTreeID field got added here as well (see bottom): How do I parse Correlation Alarm Info data? | DataMiner Docs
=> I'm guessing this is what you need?

So in short, the AlarmTreeID is formatted like "<DMA ID>/<ElementID>/<RootAlarmID>"

I hope that helps!
