# WatchTower API Fields - DEPRECATED

<mark style="color:red;">**THIS ENDPOINT HAS BEEN DEPRECATED AND WILL NO LONGER BE ACTIVELY MAINTAINED OR UPDATED**</mark>

The following alerting fields are currently provided via the Network Alerts API endpoint:

```
{
  "data" : [ {
    "asset" : "the ticker of the asset monitored",
    "time" : "the time the alert was issued",
    "alert" : "the Alert ID",
    "block_height": "Optional: Returns the block height at which the alert tirggered, if the alert is calculated on a block by block basis. Otherwise this field is omitted from the response.",
    "status" : "whether the alerting condition is still in place (active), or no longer observed (inactive)",
    "value" : "the value of the alerting metric",
    "threshold" : "the alerting threshold for the metric"
  } ]
  "heartbeats": [
    {
      "asset": "the ticker of the asset monitored",
      "time": "the last time the corresponding alert was calculated",
      "alert": "the Alert ID"
    } ]
}
```

For all alerts, heartbeats are calculated each time the underlying data is updated. In most cases this is each time a new block is generated. However, for some alerts this might be on a different frequency as well. For example, for the BTC alert `mining_pool_conflict_2b_hi` the alert is calculated every time there is an update in the [mining-pool-tips-summary](https://gitlab.com/coinmetrics/front-end/knowledge-base/-/blob/master/docs/watchtower-alerts-time-series-deprecated/watchtower-alerts-overview-deprecated/broken-reference/README.md) endpoint.
