If your organisation still uses SharePoint Alerts, you have roughly two months to act.

Microsoft is fully retiring SharePoint Alerts in July 2026. After that date, existing alerts will stop functioning permanently. No grace period, no fallback. They just stop.

As of January 2026, creating new SharePoint Alerts is already blocked for all tenants. The feature is in its final phase. The only question now is whether your organisation knows which alerts it's still relying on, and has a plan to replace them.

The real problem: most admins don't have a complete picture

SharePoint Alerts are easy to set up and easy to forget. Over the years, users across your organisation have created alerts on lists, libraries, and documents. Some business-critical, some long redundant. They accumulate quietly, and there's no simple native view that shows you all of them across the tenant in one place.

That's the problem we solved.

Find all your SharePoint Alerts in one scan

If you're using BindTuning, you don't need to chase alerts down site by site. Run a tenant scan and your Workspace Integrity Score will surface all active SharePoint Alerts across your Microsoft 365 environment.

All the insights are consolidated, visible, and ready to act on.
No PowerShell. No manual audit. Two minutes.

From there you'll know exactly what you're working with: which alerts exist, where they are, and which ones need to be replaced before July.

What to replace SharePoint Alerts with

Microsoft recommends two paths forward:

• SharePoint Rules — the simpler option. Works directly within lists and libraries. Good for basic notifications when an item is added, edited, or deleted. No additional licensing required.
• Power Automate — the flexible option. Handles more complex scenarios, supports branching logic, integrates with Teams and other Microsoft 365 apps. The right choice if your alerts are doing any kind of conditional or multi-step work.

For most organisations, a combination of both will cover the full range of what SharePoint Alerts were doing. The key is knowing what you have before you start replacing it, which is exactly what the Pulse365 scan gives you.

Don't wait until June

The organisations that will struggle with this are the ones that start auditing in the last two weeks of June. The ones that won't are the ones that run the scan now, understand the scope, and migrate methodically.

After July 1, 2026, SharePoint Alerts simply won't work, you'll have no warnings, no fallback options, and no grace period.

Two months is enough time. Start with knowing what you have.
