 Normally, when a rule meets its criteria repeatedly, it creates multiple alerts, one for each time the rule's criteria are met. When alert suppression is configured, duplicate qualifying events are grouped, and only one alert is created for each group. Depending on the rule type, you can configure alert suppression to create alerts each time the rule runs, or once within a specified time window. You can also specify multiple fields to group events by unique combinations of values.

 If you specify a field with multiple values, alerts with that field are handled as follows:
 
-* **Custom query or threshold rules** - A group of alerts is created for each value. For example, if you suppress alerts by `destination.ip` of `[127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3]`, alerts will be suppressed separately for each value of `127.0.0.1`, `127.0.0.2`, and `127.0.0.3`. 
-* **Indicator match rule, event correlation (non-sequence queries only), or new terms rule** - Alerts with the specified field name and identical array values are grouped together. For example, if you suppress alerts by `destination.ip` of `[127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3]`, alerts with the entire array are grouped and only one alert is created for the group.

 - When writing an aggregating query, use the {ref}/esql-commands.html#esql-stats-by[`STATS...BY`] command with fields that you want to search and filter for after alerts are created.
