Query Stream Alerts

The Stream Alerts view provides access to the event and alert history for all streams. Each record captures a platform-generated event or alert associated with a specific stream session, along with the error code and supporting diagnostic detail. Operators use this view to investigate stream quality issues, diagnose ingest failures, and audit platform behavior.

Stream Alert

Alert Types

The platform generates two categories of records:

  • Event — Informational records that document significant lifecycle transitions, such as stream connect or disconnect.
  • Alert — Records that indicate a condition requiring attention, such as bitrate instability, frame drop, or codec mismatch.

Filtering Alerts

The following filters are available to narrow the alert list:

FilterDescription
Ingest DomainLimit results to alerts associated with a specific ingest domain
App NameFilter by the application name associated with the stream
Stream NameFilter to a specific stream by name
Time RangeRestrict results to alerts occurring within a specified start and end time

Apply one or more filters and submit the query to refresh the results.

Alert List Columns

ColumnDescription
EventThe event or alert type, with an Info icon for additional context
Occurred atThe timestamp when the event or alert was first recorded
Last UntilThe timestamp when the condition last persisted or was resolved
Ingest DomainThe ingest domain associated with the affected stream
AppThe application name for the affected stream
StreamThe name of the affected stream
PresetThe transcoding preset active at the time of the event
Error CodeThe platform error code, with an Info icon linking to error reference detail
DetailA human-readable description of the event or alert condition
tip

Click the Info icon next to the Error Code column to view the full error reference, including common causes and recommended remediation steps.

warning

A high frequency of alerts for a single stream within a short time range may indicate an upstream encoder configuration problem, network instability, or a misconfigured transcoding preset.
