Hello-
The TTN console monitors status of Gateways and Devices.
I’d like to generate an alert if the status is offline for either a Gateway or Device.
Any suggestions on how I might do that?
My thinking is if TTN monitors the status, being able to access that flag in someway to generate an alert would be a great benefit.
Thank you.

Thanks for the reply. I didn’t post until after I had spent quite a bit of time searching. If you have a solution that comes to mind from the forum or a link, that would be ideal. Or even search terms…
Thank you.
How would TTN know how often a device is supposed to be transmitting?
As for the gateway: monitor gateway status comes to mind?
Aside: sometimes TTN Console has it wrong anyway.

I’m not sure what the algorithm is that TTN uses to determine a status either. But there is a status indicator on Devices and Gateways that indicates the last contact. TTN also indicates a green or black status next to each Device/Gateway. If we knew what it was and could use that data or have access to it, then we could flag ourselves and create an alert.
TTN may have a longer time period, but if, say, a device or gateway showed 50 minutes and we could trigger an alert from that, then it would be very useful.
I use Cayenne, but sensors don’t have an Online/Offline tag similar to the RPI/Arduino.
The data from the sensors great, but presently I am logging in frequently to make sure that devices are still reporting. Cayenne does’t support the feature yet, tho it is on their radar.
I was just thinking if the data is there and available and we had access to it (and maybe we do) that it would be useful.
Thanks!

Searching for ‘alert’ results in a result for gateway monitoring as the second result, your question being the first. If you take a few seconds to check the scripting used you’ll see it uses ttnctl which might be a good starting point for your requirements.
