Hi Pikachu-Power ,
Please review the Considerations and troubleshooting
- Alerts aren't supported for card tiles with date/time measures.
- Alerts only work with numeric data types.
- Alerts only work on refreshed data. They don't work on static data.
- Alerts only work on streaming datasets if you build a KPI, card, or gauge report visual and then pin that visual to the dashboard.
As mentioned above, Alerts only work on streaming datasets if you build a KPI, card, or gauge report visual and then pin that visual to the dashboard.

Pikachu-PowerSo Alerts only work with numeric data types would mean that i cant use alerts for a percent format?
i have two numeric values A and B. And i want an alert when A exceeds B, more precise when A / B is over 100%. Sounds strange that this is not possible 😐
When i just use A in the card and enter B as limit it works and i get an alert. But B can change so I need the percentage.

When I use a numeric value 0,44 instead of 44% in the card or kpi it works. so it looks like that i need a separate card or kpi in a numeric version just for the alert which i may hide in a power bi desktop side. Right? 😐
