Evaluating alarms at an specific time of the day

Grafana Alerting
1

Is it possible in Grafana to evaluate alarms at a specific time of the day, for example, evaluating an alarm everyday at 6:00 am?

I’ve found a “hack” to do this by setting the interval of the alarm to run daily, pausing the alarm and then starting it exactly at 6:00 am (so in theory the alarm will be evaluated everyday at 6:00 am) but I’d like to know if there is any other way.

Thanks in advance!

hi @dumejo92 :wave:

you could try using mute timings, as proposed in this forum question

Hi! I’m afraid Grafana (and Prometheus on which it is derived) are not really intended for CRON-like monitoring where jobs are run at specific times or days of the week. Instead, they’re designed for continuous monitoring over time.
