Send alert when transform has stopped

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

#1

Hi,

Is it possible to trigger an alert when a transform has stopped either by a user or from when it has failed?

One option would be to check if no new entries appear in the transform index however it is expected that there is extended periods in which this will naturally occur.

Thanks
Can a watcher be used on

It is currently not possible to trigger an alert on certain events.

What transform provides is a stats API, this will contain the state. If operating normally the state should be either indexing or started.

There are many more interesting fields in _stats, in >7.12 we added a field called last_search_time, so you know if transform triggered correctly.

If you want to integrate this with watcher, you could use the http input.

Hope that helps, if you get it up and running, I think the community would appreciate if you post your watcher configuration.
