I want to send an email notification to myself whenever the value of Tag A exceeds the value of Tag B (this condition indicates an issue with one of our machines).

Is this possible with Ignition Edge?

I found this page:

>
> The Simple One-Way Email Notification profile is another type of Email Notification profile that can be set up to notify people when alarms occur. This one-way email notification profile is just as the name suggests, one way. It listens for active...

But I don't have the option to "Create new Alarm Notification Profile" as the tutorial suggests.

Is there a different way in which I can send email notifications?

Edge only allows one alarm notification profile (the page you're on) and only allows you to use an SMTP Profile, which you can configure in Networking \> Email Settings. Once you've configured an SMTP Profile, come back to the page you're on and choose it on the second-to-last dropdown.
