Alert Time Range Discrepancy in Terraform-Managed Alerts

Hi Grafana Community,

I’m encountering an issue with a Terraform-managed alert in Grafana. When I view the alert configuration in the UI, the time range is displayed as 1d. However, when I inspect the generated query during runtime, it seems to cover a time range of 3d to now.

Here’s the setup:

  • The alert is defined using Terraform.
  • In the UI, the query editor clearly shows the time range as 1d when editing the alert.
  • Despite this, during execution, the query unexpectedly uses a 3d to now range.

I’ve attached screenshots for reference:

  1. The query editor showing the 1d time range during editing.
  2. The runtime query output showing a time range of 3d to now.

Has anyone experienced a similar discrepancy between the time range in the UI and the actual execution? Could this be due to a Terraform configuration mismatch or a caching issue?

Any guidance or suggestions on how to debug or resolve this would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
