Hello DM Dojo Community !

I wanted to know if it was possible to send specific alarm information in the message/subject line, when alarms are detected by the correlation rule. For example I would like to know  the element name/Site name that is affected by the alarm in my email notification.

Hi,

I believe there are two options here:

  • You could send a email notification using a C# code (see method SendEmail). When triggering a script from a correlation rule, you can pass information about the alarm that triggered the correlation rule to the script (How do I parse Correlation Alarm Info data?)
  • You can send an email notification directly from a correlation rule. In this case, you can pass information about the alarm that triggered the correlation rule using placeholders.

Hope it helps.

Thank you Miguel , the placeholder option worked. But I was wondering if I put placeholder in the text box of send email action in automation script instead of correlation rule will it still send the alarm info ?

Hi,
Placeholders can only be used in correlation rules.
