Cannot save alert for a real time tile

I have a tile that is using a streaming data set.  The data set is generated using the REST API.

I try to add an alert for this tile (value > 0), but when I save the alert it spins.  I've left it for over 5 minutes now with no progress.

 

I see the following in the chrome developer tools, but I'm not sure if it is related:

powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.min.js:1136 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'pageX' of undefined
    at ta (powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.min.js:1136)
    at Da (powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.min.js:1137)
    at xa.setEventXY (powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.min.js:1176)
    at xa.pointerMove (powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.min.js:1190)
    at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> (powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.min.js:1149)

 

Anyone else seeing this?

 

Thanks

I even cannot find the bell icon which used to set alert in my dashboard tile which comes from the streaming dataset. Could you please post a screenshot for your tile options?

It looks like it was removed "over the weekend"

 

Here is a screenshot of my dashboard that I happened to keep open since last week:

Here's the same tile after refreshing the browser:

So, is alerting being removed (for this scenario) or is it temporarily disabled?

I reported it internally to Power BI Team: CRI 33479809

And I’ve got response that this is by design, data alerts do not work on streaming datasets. They will update the documentation to make this clear.

 

Data alerts can only be created based on KPI, cards and gauge visuals pinned from reports. You can create a report based on a streaming dataset if you enable the “historic analysis enabled” option.
