I’m trying to send SMS while some sensor exceeds the particular active points through alarm pipelines. While sensor exceeds that value… In gateway alarm pipeline is not triggering.

Welcome!

Need more info to help.  
How do you know it’s not triggering? Can you see it [\<…gatewayURL:port\>/web/status/sys.alarm-pipelines](https://web/status/sys.alarm-pipelines)  
Is it tied to an alarm already?

For alarm trigger I just set a low set point in alarm properties. And I refer if in a gateway status alarm pipeline is active or not… And I’d used UDT tag for my project.

While checking status it will not active in my gateway.

You also need to target the pipeline name in tag configs, not only a set point.
