Can the API get the alert rule associated to a datapoint on a DS instance?

    If you want to use the API, you technically can see the routing but the endpoint is not supported and listed. I can’t speak on how reliable it is…

    You call /alertsettings/{datapointID}/recipients

    But with all that said, you can also just run an Alert Threshold report. You can even run it with ‘Only show custom thresholds’ enabled.

Hey @Lewis Beard 

So, the endpoint that @Michael Raymond had mentioned is an unsupported endpoint.  That is what this disclaimer was in his post:

There are many endpoints that we don’t expose via Swagger as they are typically used for internal communication.  However, as long as the endpoint is a v3 UI endpoint it should work from an external API call.  With these endpoints, we can and do change them from time to time with no warning, that is why it’s unpublished.  I would definitely recommend submitted feedback for your use case on that endpoint and our product team can consider it for adding into being a supported endpoint.
