- What Grafana version and what operating system are you using? Grafana v8.0.6 (68fe9e3431) on RHEL8 and InfluxDB V2 - **What** are you trying to achieve? I would like an alert to fire and be able to see the hosts in a table that it’s alerting about - **How** are you trying to achieve it? The following is my alert config. from(bucket:v.bucket) |\> range(start:-1d) |\> filter(fn:(r) =\> r.\_measurement == “cpu” and r.cpu == “cpu-total” and r.\_field == “usage\_idle” ) |\> aggregateWindow(every: 1m, fn: mean) - What happened? When it alerts it’s only shows that it’s alerting without much more info - What did you **expect** to happen? I would have expected a simple list of alerting devices - Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL? I just use the flux query that I use for a graph Thanks, Nick L ---

Hi @nick124 Are you using [the new Unified Alerting](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/unified-alerting/), which is still behind a feature toggle? Or are you using the legacy alerting system? ---

I have not enabled the new unified AFAIK. I can if that would be needed for it to function as intended. ---

Currently, and probably for the next few minor versions of Grafana, you must [opt-in](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/unified-alerting/opt-in/) to Unified Alerting (ngalert) ---

Ok, then yes I have it enabled. I added the ngalert to the config file and restarted. I didn’t realize Unified alerting is ngalert (I thought this stood for NextGen Alerting). ---
