Hello forum,  
I m having weird behaviour, generally everything works well, alarm conditions triggers and an email will be sent through the pipeline, sometimes weirdly the same alarm triggers 3 alarms at the same time without switching state (so this is weird) (check screenshot)

 ![Screenshot 2024-12-26 at 13.45.13](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/4/c44fdedfa3252a1b0a032cd7b25fb7919e9ac83a.png)

This alarm has the following configuration: whenever the value changes it triggers saying error or active or something else, so every value has a meaning and we are sending that value through the email, but from what I m seeing, at 18:59.58 for example, there is only state 'active' sent, so there is no change in the state/value

Thank you.

Has the tag been duplicated somehow--perhaps copy and paste? ...or are there multiple gateways?

Exactly, it's weird but we figured out that we duplicated some udts.
