Now i like to setup alerting on specific field value to email me. I presume Watcher is use for alerting purpose.

Hi Rehan,

I suggest starting with the Watcher Getting Started Guide as a first step. That should show you how to create Watches. Then you can read more about configuring actions.

Hope that helps!

Thanks,
Steve

It's the same commands whether you are on linux or windows.

The only thing is you need curl on windows if you want to interact with things like that, otherwise Sense! :slight_smile:
