Event definition not sending alerts

I have created an event definition, hoping to create a different one for each stream since its stream alerts I want. So far I can’t get it to trigger an alert even though the filter preview shows messages in there. The notification works I can receive test emails. I wonder what i’m missing here?

Condition type: Filter & Aggregation
Search Query:
Streams:
Search within the last: 1 hour
Execute search every: 5 mins
checkmark for: Enabled

Aggregation of results reaches a threshold
Group by Fields:

Condition summary
Condition is valid
Preview: count(message) > 0

The stream is started, and I even set the Search within the last: to 96 hours, the preview shows even more results.

Runs every 5 minutes, searching within the last 4 days. Triggers 1 Notification.

Status:
runnable
Last execution:
2021-02-04 19:44:33.529
Next execution:
2021-02-04 19:49:17.819
Next timerange:
2021-01-31 19:49:17.820 2021-02-04 19:49:17.819

Whats your environment setup?
Just an Idea, Have you tried shortening “Search within the last” and “Execute search every” then test a new message going into that stream. If the Test notification works, it might be the configuration. I’m running Graylog 4.0.
here is mine for example:

Hope this helps

Hi, thanks for your reply. From your screenshots, I think the problem was either the count included the field “message” (yours is blank) or less likely the * in the search field. I’m finally getting emails now.
