Hey. I wish I had an email notification to, if any sensor breakdowns more than once per week / month / year. Simply put, if for instance on the host CPU sensor work per week / month / year 2-3-4 times, I want to have my letter arrived. How can I do it?

Dear Anton,

This will only be possible with a custom script. You can create a new state trigger which executes a script to create a log file and count the failed attempts. You can then use the File Content Sensor and read the number within this file.

Finally, you can set a limit to the channel to trigger an email notification.

Best regards, Felix
