Hi everybody,

I have a tag with two alarms. What can I do if I want to delete only the first alarm with `system.tag.configure()` ?

Thanks,

Hi,

Here my script.  
For my use, I created an Associated Data named "alarm\_id" for each alarm.  
Otherwise, you can use alarm name.

```auto
def deleteAlarm(fullTagPath,alarm_id):
	tags = system.tag.getConfiguration(fullTagPath)
		
	for alarm in tags[0]['alarms']:
		if alarm['alarm_id'] == alarm_id:
			ndx = tags[0]['alarms'].index(alarm)
			break
	
	del tags[0]['alarms'][ndx]

```
