Team,  
Is it possible to export the Watch History (Alerts triggered by Watcher) ?

I am looking to find what are all the Alerts triggered by my watchers over a Period of time & would like to understand how many alerts fired by each watcher.

Is there any way to get this information ?

I am running ELK/Kibana with 6.8 Version

Hi @mdamera,

There is no export functionality available in Watcher app. The watcher history has its own index  
so you can use mostly any export index script to get the data.
