Is it possible to receive an error notification via email or something that’s not just a sound on my computer? Thanks ---

Thanks for raising an important question @ronaldo7matic10! At this moment, local monitors only trigger local actions on error. We have plans to revamp error actions so that it can support all possible actions. In the meantime, do you need to get notified of SELECTION\_EMPTY errors via email? ---

If I could get notified of SELECTION\_EMPTY for a local monitor that would be great. ---

Sure. One of the easiest tricks is to include the page’s title in selections. CSS selector: `title` XPath selector: `//title` Using any one of the above selectors should work. ---

Is there a way to get an email when a monitor throws an error? regardless of the type of error. As sometimes its due to site being blocked, i’d like to know when that happens so i can switch proxies ---

@fomo you can use the solution to monitor the page’s title to get alerts. ---
