Alerting

Why do I keep getting the 'Argument "action.email" is not supported by the handler' error message?

Our users keep getting the error message - Argument "action.email" is not supported by the handler. message.

The following speaks about it - User getting "Argument "action.email" is not supported by this handler" when creating alert

However, restarting of the SH cluster fixes the issue for a short while and then it reappears.

Any ideas?

I had the same issue, in my case I solved after configure specific capabilities for this role.

edit_search_scheduler

I hope this will help.

you maybe hitting the wrong URL.
Incase if you are hitting through management port 8089,

eg: corrent URL: https://:8089/services/data/inputs/web_ping/

wrong URL: https://:8089/services/data/inputs/web_ping/_new

In this thread here, it appears that the same problem was the result of the use of quotes around the search terms and once it was removed the issue was resolved. Oddly worded error if that winds up being the case?

Restart a SH cluster fixing an issue lookes like a caching problem. Not entirely sure.

Do you have any automation or maybe setting the default/local config?

Definitely open a support case and then report back here with what they find!

Makes sense @woodcock.

What roles/capabilities does the user have?

What is the configuration in savedsearches.conf?
