Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • The app is not visible.

    Why it's wrong here

    Visibility affects UI access, not alert execution.

  • The owner does not have write access.

    Why it's wrong here

    Write access is needed for editing, but not execution.

  • Alert actions are not enabled.

    Why this is correct

    Alert actions must be explicitly enabled.

  • The search is too short.

    Why it's wrong here

    Search duration does not prevent triggering.
