# UT Bot Suite Alerts and Automation
> Configure TradingView alerts for UT Bot Pro and Ultimate UT Bot Screener, and send them to bots and external services with webhooks.
Both UT Bot Suite scripts send alerts through TradingView's **alert() function calls**. UT Bot Pro, as a strategy, can also send **order fill** alerts.
## UT Bot Pro alerts
| Alert source | Message | Best for |
| - | - | - |
| **alert() function calls** | Defined by the script | Signal notifications |
| **Order fills** | Your own message, with strategy placeholders | Webhooks that need a custom format |
**Pending verification:** the exact UT Bot Pro alert() messages and when each fires. This section will be completed once it is confirmed against the indicator's source code or official product information. Until then, rely on the indicator's own settings panel inside TradingView.
### Create a UT Bot Pro alert
**1. Set up the chart**
Open the symbol and timeframe to monitor, with UT Bot Pro configured as you want.
**2. Open Create Alert**
Click the **Alert** button or press Alt + A (Option + A on macOS).
**3. Choose the condition**
In **Condition**, select **UT Bot Pro**, then **alert() function calls only** for the script's own messages, or **Order fills only** for a custom message.
**4. Notifications**
Choose notifications (app, pop-up, email, webhook) and click **Create**.
Create Alert dialog with UT Bot Pro selected
> [!WARNING]
>
> Choosing **Order fills and alert() function calls** sends both kinds of alert, which can mean duplicate notifications for the same signal.
### Custom messages with order fills
Order fill alerts let you write your own message using [strategy placeholders](https://www.tradingview.com/support/solutions/43000531021-how-to-use-a-variable-value-in-alert/):
```json theme={null}
{
"indicator": "UT Bot Pro",
"action": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
"order_id": "{{strategy.order.id}}",
"symbol": "{{exchange}}:{{ticker}}",
"interval": "{{interval}}",
"price": "{{strategy.order.price}}",
"position": "{{strategy.market_position}}",
"fired_at": "{{timenow}}"
}
```
Order fill alerts follow the strategy's actual orders, so they reflect your **Entry Mode**, **Exit Mode**, and **HTF filter**. They also respect the **backtest date range**: with the range on, no orders, and so no order fill alerts, happen after the **End Date** (2030-01-01 by default).
## Ultimate UT Bot Screener alerts
The Screener sends alerts about the symbols in its table. **Alerts Type** controls the content:
| Alerts Type | Alert contains |
| - | - |
| **Only Symbols** (default) | The matching symbols |
| **With Values** | The matching symbols and their column values |
To create one, open **Create Alert**, select **Ultimate UT Bot Screener** as the condition, choose **Any alert() function call**, and click **Create**.
**Pending verification:** exactly which events trigger Screener alerts (for example, new UT signals or filter matches) and the message format. This section will be completed once it is confirmed against the indicator's source code or official product information. Until then, rely on the indicator's own settings panel inside TradingView.
## Automation with webhooks
> [!NOTE]
>
> **General TradingView information.** This section describes standard TradingView behavior, not a QuantNomad-specific feature. TradingView updates its interface regularly, so menu names and positions may differ slightly from what you see. When in doubt, check the [TradingView Help Center](https://www.tradingview.com/support/).
**1. Get a webhook URL**
From the receiving service, such as a bot platform or your own server.
**2. Pick the alert source**
For a custom format, use UT Bot Pro **order fill** alerts with a JSON message like the one above.
**3. Attach the webhook**
In the alert's **Notifications** tab, enable **Webhook URL** and paste the URL.
**4. Test before going live**
Send alerts to a test endpoint or paper-trading account first, and check each message is received and parsed correctly.
> [!WARNING]
>
> Automation amplifies mistakes. A wrong message format, duplicate alerts, or an intrabar entry mode can all result in unintended orders. Test thoroughly and monitor your automation.
See [Webhook Alerts & Automation](https://docs.quantnomad.com/guides/webhooks.md) for requirements and security practices.
