How to list metric alerts in Azure with PowerShell

Question

Is it possible to list metric alerts in Azure with PowerShell? I could only find:

Get-AzureRmAlertRule

But that only gives me the "classic" alerts and not the metric alerts I have in the portal.

I can get all the metric alerts through the API by using the metricalerts/listbyresourcegroup end-point.

Anyone that has any idea on if it is possible to get them through a PowerShell script?

You could try using the generic Get-AzureRmResource cmdlet with a resource type filter, e.g.

# Retrieve alert rule
$rule = Get-AzureRmResource -ResourceType Microsoft.Insights/alertRules -ResourceGroupName "myResourceGroup" -Name "my-rule";

# Retrieve alerts for this rule
Get-AzureRmAlertHistory -ResourceId $rule.ResourceId -StartTime (Get-Date).AddHours(-1) -EndTime (Get-Date)

Many thanks, works like I want when I add -ResourceGroup and specify it

But then I understand is as that there is no specific function to get the "new" alerts without using this generic way?

No problem. Even though the REST API endpoint uses Microsoft.Insights/metricAlerts, the resource type shows Microsoft.Insights/alertRules after creating a metric rule using Add-AzureRmMetricAlertRule.

@KungWaz I believe you can use Get-AzureRmAlertHistory to retrieve the actual alerts for a specific rule, in a specific time window.

Ok, might be stuck anyways, I don't think I can get -DetailedOutput through Get-AzureRmResource. And the Get-AzureRmAlertHistory does not seem to yield any output, so I guess that also only covers "classic" alerts :(
