# Trigger retraining for an anomaly detection alert

`PATCH /api/v2/{org_id}/alerts/{alert_id}/retrain`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.openobserve.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.openobserve.ai/api/v2/{org_id}/alerts/{alert_id}/retrain`
- Auth: API key in header `Authorization`
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/openobserve/apis/openobserve-api-http/docs/api/v2/:org_id/alerts/:alert_id/retrain/patch.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Triggers a model retrain for an anomaly detection alert. Returns 400 if called on a non-anomaly alert type.

## Path parameters

- `org_id` string, required
- `alert_id` string, required

## Response `200`

Success

- HttpResponse: HTTP response code 200 is success code 400 is error code 404 is not found code 500 is internal server error code 503 is service unavailable code >= 1000 is custom error code message is the message or error message
  - `code` integer, required
  - `error_detail` string, nullable
  - `hint` string, nullable: One-line guidance on how to fix the error (agent self-correction, D4).
  - `id` string, nullable
  - `message` string, required
  - `name` string, nullable
  - `suggestions` string[], nullable: Closest valid alternatives for a mistyped field/function name.
  - `trace_id` string, nullable
  - `warnings` string[], nullable: Problems with a request that succeeded anyway. Distinct from `hint`, which explains a failure: these accompany a 200, and the caller is entitled to have meant it.

## Other responses

- `400`: Not an anomaly detection alert
- `404`: NotFound
- `500`: Failure
