Below are some variables you can include in your message using Mustache templates to see more information about your monitors.
#### Available variables ### Available variables
Variable | Description #### Monitor variables
:--- | :---
`ctx.results` | An array with one element (i.e. `ctx.results[0]`). Contains the query results. This variable is empty if the trigger was unable to retrieve results. See `ctx.error`. Variable | Data Type | Description
`ctx.monitor` | Includes `ctx.monitor.name`, `ctx.monitor.type`, `ctx.monitor.enabled`, `ctx.monitor.enabled_time`, `ctx.monitor.schedule`, `ctx.monitor.inputs`, `triggers` and `ctx.monitor.last_update_time`. :--- | :--- | :---
`ctx.trigger` | Includes `ctx.trigger.name`, `ctx.trigger.severity`, `ctx.trigger.condition`, and `ctx.trigger.actions`. `ctx.monitor` | JSON | Includes `ctx.monitor.name`, `ctx.monitor.type`, `ctx.monitor.enabled`, `ctx.monitor.enabled_time`, `ctx.monitor.schedule`, `ctx.monitor.inputs`, `triggers` and `ctx.monitor.last_update_time`.
`ctx.periodStart` | Unix timestamp for the beginning of the period during which the alert triggered. For example, if a monitor runs every ten minutes, a period might begin at 10:40 and end at 10:50. `ctx.monitor.user` | JSON | Includes information about the user who created the monitor. Includes `ctx.monitor.user.backend_roles` and `ctx.monitor.user.roles`, which are arrays that contain the backend roles and roles assigned to the user. See [alerting security](../security.md/) for more information.
`ctx.periodEnd` | The end of the period during which the alert triggered. `ctx.monitor.enabled` | Boolean | Whether the monitor is enabled.
`ctx.error` | The error message if the trigger was unable to retrieve results or unable to evaluate the trigger, typically due to a compile error or null pointer exception. Null otherwise. `ctx.monitor.enabled_time` | Milliseconds | Unix epoch time of when the monitor was last enabled.
`ctx.alert` | The current, active alert (if it exists). Includes `ctx.alert.id`, `ctx.alert.version`, and `ctx.alert.isAcknowledged`. Null if no alert is active. `ctx.monitor.schedule` | JSON | Contains a schedule of how often or when the monitor should run.
`ctx.monitor.schedule.period.interval` | Integer | The interval at which the monitor runs.
`ctx.monitor.schedule.period.unit` | String | The interval's unit of time.
`ctx.monitor.inputs` | Array | An array that contains the indices and definition used to create the monitor.
`ctx.monitor.inputs.search.indices` | Array | An array that contains the indices the monitor observes.
`ctx.monitor.inputs.search.query` | N/A | The definition used to define the monitor.

`ctx.trigger.condition.script.lang` | String | The script used to define the trigger.
`ctx.trigger.actions`| Array | An array with one element that contains information about the action the monitor needs to trigger.
#### Action variables
Variable | Data Type | Description
