Hi, I have a doubt in alarm status table. I want to filter the top 5 alarms from alarm status table and display in the table component . If the new alarm comes the last one should go and new one should add. Based on timestamp the alarm should take the recent 5 alarms.

Inside the properties of the Alarm status table in the options section, in initial option we set 5 so that only 5 alarms are shown. To filter by time, we go to columns/active and select active time in sort: descending and order with number 0. Finally, in pager, I set it to hide so that the option would not be displayed below the table, and this is the final result:

This is how it looks inside the browser:

You can modify the properties of the table to customize it to your liking!

This function return list of alarm events and then you can display top 5 alarms.

> **[system.alarm.queryStatus | Ignition User Manual](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/appendix/scripting-functions/system-alarm/system-alarm-queryStatus#description)**
>
> Queries the current state of alarms. The result is a list of alarm events, which can be queried for individual properties.

Paste this binding to the props.data property of your Table component  
While it might not be the complete code, it serves as a guide to steer you in the right direction.
