    Hi reniyama 

     

    I'm afraid that it's not currently possible to set up a trigger that will warn you every week if the value is greater than zero (although we do have a roadmap item to enable this). However, there is something you can do that might still be useful. If you change your trigger condition to "becomes greater than zero", then it will warn you at most once per week. The difference is that it will only warn you if the value was zero the week before. For example:

     

    Week 1: value = 0 (no alert)

    Week 2: value = 1 (you get an alert, because last week it was 0)

    Week 3: value = 1 (no alert)

    Week 4: value = 0 (no alert)

    Week 5: value = 5 (you get an alert, because last week it was 0)
