I found a similar unsolved discussion regarding an issue with the "Add Alert" form in Superset, which might be related to your problem. You can check it out here: Error in Add Alert form when upgrading to version 4.0.1 ^[1].

To address the "email keeps spinning" issue when configuring alerts in the latest-dev version of Superset using Chrome, ensure the following configurations are correctly set in your superset_config.py:

1. Enable the Feature Flag: Make sure the ALERT_REPORTS feature flag is set to True.

   FEATURE_FLAGS = {
       "ALERT_REPORTS": True
   }

2. Configure SMTP Settings: Ensure your SMTP settings are correctly configured for email notifications.

   SMTP_HOST = 'your_smtp_host'
   SMTP_STARTTLS = True
   SMTP_SSL = False
   SMTP_USER = 'your_smtp_user'
   SMTP_PORT = 587
   SMTP_PASSWORD = 'your_smtp_password'
   SMTP_MAIL_FROM = 'your_email@example.com'

3. Disable Dry-Run Mode: Set ALERT_REPORTS_NOTIFICATION_DRY_RUN to False to start receiving email notifications.

   ALERT_REPORTS_NOTIFICATION_DRY_RUN = False

These configurations should help resolve the issue with the email notification feature in Superset ^[2].

我找到了一个类似的未解决的讨论，关于 Superset 中“添加警报”表单的问题，这可能与您的问题有关。您可以在这里查看：升级到 4.0.1 版时添加警报表单出错 [1]。

要解决使用 Chrome 在 Superset 的最新开发版本中配置警报时出现“电子邮件不断旋转”的问题，请确保在您的中正确设置以下配置superset_config.py：

1. 启用功能标志：确保ALERT_REPORTS功能标志设置为True。

   FEATURE_FLAGS = {
       "ALERT_REPORTS": True
   }

2. 配置 SMTP 设置：确保您的 SMTP 设置已正确配置以用于电子邮件通知。

   SMTP_HOST = 'your_smtp_host'
   SMTP_STARTTLS = True
   SMTP_SSL = False
   SMTP_USER = 'your_smtp_user'
   SMTP_PORT = 587
   SMTP_PASSWORD = 'your_smtp_password'
   SMTP_MAIL_FROM = 'your_email@example.com'

3. 禁用试运行模式：设置ALERT_REPORTS_NOTIFICATION_DRY_RUN为False开始接收电子邮件通知。

   ALERT_REPORTS_NOTIFICATION_DRY_RUN = False

这些配置应该有助于解决 Superset [2]中的电子邮件通知功能的问题。

I added email related configurations to the configuration file superset_config.py, but when setting alerts, setting the email address is still loading and prompts for invalid emails

The issue you're encountering with the "email keeps spinning" and "invalid email" prompts in Superset's alert configuration might be related to the email validation rules. Superset uses a function called checkEmailFormat to validate email addresses. This function checks if the email addresses in the recipients, cc, and bcc fields are correctly formatted according to a regular expression ^[1].

Here are a few steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

1. Check Email Format: Ensure that all email addresses entered in the alert configuration are correctly formatted. They should not contain any spaces or invalid characters and should be separated by commas or semicolons if there are multiple addresses.

2. Review Validation Logic: The validation logic in Superset might be strict, so double-check that the email addresses conform to standard formats (e.g., example@domain.com).

3. Inspect Console for Errors: Use the browser's developer tools to check for any JavaScript errors in the console that might provide more insight into why the email validation is failing.

4. Review Superset Logs: Check the Superset logs for any error messages related to email validation or configuration issues.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, you might need to review the specific implementation of the checkEmailFormat function in your Superset version to ensure it aligns with the expected email formats.

i also encounter this problem, have you resolved it?

[rusackas]

Is anyone still facing this one? It's been quiet for a while, and I'm wondering if 4.1.2/5.0.0 fixed this along the way.

The issue with the "email keeps spinning" and "invalid email" prompts in Superset's alert configuration is likely related to the email validation process. Superset uses the checkEmailFormat function to validate email addresses in the recipients, cc, and bcc fields. This function ensures that the email addresses match a specific regular expression pattern ^[1].

To resolve this issue, consider the following steps:

1. Ensure Correct Email Format: Verify that all email addresses are correctly formatted. They should follow the standard email format (e.g., example@domain.com) and be free of spaces or invalid characters. If there are multiple addresses, separate them with commas or semicolons.

2. Check for JavaScript Errors: Use your browser's developer tools to inspect the console for any JavaScript errors that might indicate why the email validation is failing.

3. Review Superset Logs: Look at the Superset logs for any error messages related to email validation or configuration issues.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, you may need to examine the specific implementation of the checkEmailFormat function in your version of Superset to ensure it aligns with the expected email formats.

Yes, with 5.0.0rc2.

[hxtmdev]

Skimming superset-frontend/src/features/alerts/components/NotificationMethod.tsx, it seems like loading is set to true, but without Slack configuration is never set to false again.

@dosu this sounds like something you could try to confirm?
