As a My Alerts Administrator you may wish to check how many users will receive an email at the next scheduled My Alerts run. You may also wish to check details for a specific User. Astun have provided a python script which you may download and run as required.

Requirements

  • A working installation of Python 2.7. This may be installed using the Astun 3rd Party Installer.
  • easy_install (part of SetupTools) - it may be necessary to set the http_proxy environment variable for this package to install correctly.

...

  • Copy the latest version of the My Alerts python script from ftp://ftp.astuntechnology.com/utilities/myalerts-0.1-py2.7.egg to your local machine. We would suggest that you copy this to a myalerts folder under Astun\Tools e.g. D:\Astun\Tools\myalerts.
  • Open a command prompt window and navigate to the folder where you copied the python script.
  • Type in easy_install  myalerts-0.1-py2.7.egg 

...

If you wish to see a more detailed summary then run the script in verbose mode. In the example output you can see that one user will receive an email with information about 2 locations, while the other 2 will not receive any email.
