Hi,
First i am newbie in kibana and elastic search as well, so basically i am using trial version to test if it meets my requirement or not.
I am trying to trigger an email, Current example, i created an index called nocopasa. in that i have field called source and computer name. What i need is if source appears more than 10 times in every 5 mins then send me the computer name of that records through email. I really don't have any idea how can i achieve this.
Let me know if i am not clear to you.
Thanks

Hi Hammad, the tool you'll want to use is [Watcher](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/xpack-alerting.html#_how_watches_work). You can define an [input](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/input.html) to retrieve data from Elasticsearch. In your case, you'll want to use a [date range query](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-range-query.html#ranges-on-dates) to get the occurrence of source in the past 5 mins.
Then you can define a [condition](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/input-search.html), which operates on the results of this query. In your case, you can probably use a [compare condition](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/condition-compare.html) to compare the results and return true if it is greater than 10.
Finally, you will want to define an [email action](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/actions-email.html) to send yourself an email.
Hope this helps!
CJ
