Manage scheduled tenant alerts.

This same page will display for the edit alert action with the selected alert's information displayed to review, alter, and save.

CIPP offers a set of scheduled, recurring alert checks. Some of these duplicate Microsoft Alerts functionality in a more MSP-friendly manner and some are not available as a Microsoft Alert at this time. Similar to Standards & Drift, you configure alerts using the wizard to select one or more tenants or -All Tenants- to apply alerts globally, then select from the list of available alerts.

Alert Types

Within CIPP, there are two types of alerts:

• Audit Log Alert - These alerts are based on Microsoft audit logs.

• Scripted CIPP Alert - These alerts have been developed by CIPP to pull from sources other than the audit logs.

Alert Timing

• Audit Log Alerts - Processed in near real-time, but a small delay of up to 15 minutes is normal.

• Scripted CIPP Alerts - Each alert comes with a default value suggested by the CIPP team, but you can adjust it as needed. The available timings are:

  • 365 days / 1 year

  • 30 days / 1 month

  • 7 days / 1 week

  • 1 day

  • 4 hours

  • 1 hour

  • 30 minutes
