Question #: 205
Topic #: 3
You have Microsoft 365 E5 subscription.
You create two alert policies named Policy1 and Policy2 that will be triggered at the times shown in the following table.

How many alerts will be added to the Microsoft Purview portal?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

In Microsoft Purview, when multiple alert policies trigger alerts, duplicate alerts within a short period (typically 5 minutes) may be suppressed to avoid redundancy.
Step-by-step Analysis:

Policy1 at 10:00:04 is ignored because Policy1 already triggered at 10:00:00, and it's within 5 minutes.
Policy2 at 10:00:31 is ignored because Policy2 already triggered at 10:00:03, and it's within 5 minutes.
Policy1 at 10:01:01 is a new alert because it's over 1 minute after the previous Policy1 alert.
Policy1 at 10:04:45 is a new alert because it's over 3 minutes after the previous Policy1 alert.
