Has anyone ever lost the option to add an alarm notification pipeline to their tag in the alarm configuration like in the image below?

Its very odd, i have never seen this and this just happened today, or at least I just noticed.  
This is a new alarm I was adding.

Does anyone have any ideas what the problem is?  
Ignition system is on 7.9.17

Is the alarm notification module installed? Is it working correctly, on the gateway?

| Alarm Notification | 4.9.17 (b2021010514) | Provides alarm notifications via email | Activated | Running | |

It is installed. Another thing missing is the email notification properties.  
They show up on other alarm tags that already have alarm notification pipelines configured.  
This is a dev server that I created all the alarms on and moved to production.  
They are showing up in production but not the dev server now.  
As far as I know they’re working.  
Its kinda hard to test an alarm and notification since I can’t create a new one to test.

Are there any errors in the logs when you start the designer? Or obvious errors in the gateway logs?

One other thing to try, since it’s a dev gateway:

1. Shut down the gateway.
2. Find the `.alarms_$timestamp` file in the gateway installation directory `/data` folder.
3. Delete it, restart the gateway.

That fixed it, thank you.
