Alert email link lookback time interval

[rhaig10695]

Hi,

When I get my alert email, I get link on the bottom that will get me to the correct dashboard but will be time-limited to the lookback period on the alert to now. So lets say I have an alert that runs every minute with a 1 minute lookback so when I click on the dashboard it gives me all the right filters but the @timestamp field is liminuted to now-1m. Lets say an alert comes in at 11:00 (meaning the event happened somewhere in the 10:59th minute) and I'm in a meeting. I get back to my desk at 11:30 and see the alert, click the link at 11:31, and it will take me to the correct dashboard but for 11:30-11:31 window, not the 10:59-11:00 window when the actual alert happened. In short - wouldn't be infinitely more useful to see the actual alert when it happened in the context that it happened (say +/- 15 minutes) than to see the rather irrelevant most recent minute of that dashboard?

Is there a way to make this happen, or is this a future feature request?

Thanks.

This is certainly a feature request, and I have put it in the system on your behalf. You can reference task ID 6031 to any employee on the forums to check on the progress of the feature request. Thanks!
