Available Alert Types

Alert Preferences includes 31 configurable alert types organized by name and message code. These cover:

Data Alerts

  • Data refreshes (started, completed, failed)
  • Field availability changes
  • Extraction failures and retries
  • Query extract completed after failure
  • File ingestion errors
  • Lookup pipeline activity
  • Integration authentication events

Data Quality Alerts

Fires when a datastore field transitions into a problem state for the first time, so you find out about new issues without checking the Action Panel. Alerts are grouped by error type so you can subscribe selectively:

  • Duplicate join keys (attribute datastores)
  • Duplicate join keys (identity — Simon ID)
  • Duplicate join keys (identity — non-Simon ID)
  • View errors (broken view, missing column, permission denied, analysis timeout)

Alerts fire only on state transitions — when a field goes from clean to dirty, or when a brand-new issue is detected. Existing known issues do not re-alert on subsequent reporter runs.

📘

Composable and hybrid orgs only

Data Quality Alerts are available to organizations on the composable platform. They are not available for classic orgs.

Flow and Journey Alerts

  • Flow sync completion and errors
  • Content errors
  • Permission issues
  • Missing integrations (Responsys, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Facebook, Google Ads, and others)
  • Journey segment changes

Outage Alerts

  • System-wide Outage — notifies when a platform-wide outage is declared
  • Service Outage — notifies when a specific Simon service experiences an outage

Alert History

To view a log of all triggered alerts for your organization:

  1. Navigate to Alerts & Status
  2. Select Alert History

Alert History displays all activated notifications regardless of your subscription settings, giving you a complete audit trail of account activity at any time.
