Creating an alert not based on a summary number

TC1199A

I am trying to create an alert on a specific card to alert me x amount of days before an upcoming date. I have created a field in the ETL that shows how many days are remaining before the specified date but when I go to create the alert the only trigger it allows me to use is off of a summary number and not off of a row like shown in the "alert" articles found in the domo help center. Is there a way that I can do this still or is it no longer a feature?

I think only certain types of cards allow non-summary member alerts, but I've always just used summary numbers for alerts so I'm not positive. I usually just create separate cards just for having summary number based alerts

Have you tried looking into doing a dataset alert on your dataset where you're calculating the days?

Thanks for the response!

Do you know what kind of cards allow non-summary number alerts?

@GrantSmith For example: If I have different unique PO's in one column and a column that tells me how many days the PO has before its ship date. Will this alert be able to go through the column for days and alert me with what PO's have less than 5 days before the ship date?

I know some Bar graphs do, but it's only like "most recent month's value"
