Alerts¶

TagFinder alerts notify you when sensor thresholds are breached or assets move in and out of zones. Notifications are sent via email or SMS.

Alert rules¶

Go to Alerts in the sidebar. The Rules tab shows all configured alert rules.

Click Create Rule
Fill in:
- Rule Name — descriptive name, e.g., "Cold Room above 8°C"
- Description — optional details

Select a trigger type:

Trigger	Fires when
Sensor Threshold	A sensor value crosses a threshold (e.g., temperature > 8°C)
Geofence Enter	An asset enters a zone
Geofence Exit	An asset leaves a zone
Gateway Detection	A tag is detected by a specific gateway

Configure conditions:
- For sensor thresholds: select the sensor field (temperature, humidity, battery voltage, signal strength), operator (<, >, <=, >=, =), and threshold value
- For geofence triggers: select which geofence(s) to monitor
Set the scope — which assets this rule applies to:
- All assets
- Specific assets (select from list)
- Specific asset types
Set a cooldown period — minimum time between repeated alerts for the same rule (prevents notification spam)
Add recipients:
- Email addresses
- SMS phone numbers
Click Save

From the rules list, you can:

Switch to the History tab to see all triggered alerts:
