Important information about event ID alerts:

• Event ID type alerts auto-resolve in one week (unless 'resolved' by the MSP earlier).
• One alert is generated per event ID type, in a 60 minute period. There are no duplicate alerts on event IDs.
• Windows Events type alerts cannot be snoozed.

 The alert severity in Atera will be registered based on the Microsoft event level. The Event Severity should correspond to the Microsoft event Level.

Event Severity Types: Atera vs. Microsoft:
