No data returns for "Create New Monitor" but in "Search" yes

Collector data available in search view but not in Alerts.
If I type _collector=adsprod into "Search view", it returns result
If I type _collector=adsprod into "Create New Monitor" of Alerts, it returns no result and I can't create an alert base on it...

If anyone has a solution for it?

  Francois,

   Here's my theory, but please verify my assumption:

  I'm assuming your searching your logs for _collector=adsprod and getting some results. Can you confirm this is true? If so, you need to schedule your Alert using a Scheduled Search. Here's instructions: https://help.sumologic.com/Dashboards_and_Alerts/Alerts/01_Scheduled_Searches

  To clarify, the "Create New Monitor" screen is currently only for creating Alerts for your metrics data. In the near future, these two will be combined so all Alerts are created from the same screen, but in the meantime, you can follow the steps in the link above to create a Scheduled Search.

  Cheers,

  Mario

  Hi Mario,

  It works fine now, not very intuitive for the Monitor but it will improve later ;)

  Thanks you
