    Hi,

    I would like to programatically add alert to folders inside a sharepoint list. I have found how to set alerts to a list and this works perfect.

    Could someone please help me on how to set alerts to a specific folder which is inside a list.

    Below is the code i currently have which sets alerts only to the list.

    using (SPSite site = new SPSite(http://site/)){
    using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
    {    
    SPUser user = web.SiteUsers["domain\\user"];
    SPAlert newAlert = user.Alerts.Add();
    newAlert.AlertType = SPAlertType.List;
    newAlert.List = web.Lists["Documents"];
    newAlert.EventType = SPEventType.All;
    newAlert.AlertFrequency = SPAlertFrequency.Immediate;
    //passing true to Update method will send alert confirmation mail
    newAlert.Update(
    true);

    Your help will be much appreciated
    Thank You!

      This works.

       public static void AddFolderAlerts()
 {
            SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
            {

                using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://basesmcdev2/sites/tester1"))
                {

                    using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
                    {

                        SPUser user = web.Users["basesmcdev2\\steve.curran"];
                        SPFolder folder = web.GetFolder("http://basesmcdev2/sites/tester1/Shared Documents/newfolder");
                        user.Alerts.Add(folder.Item, SPEventType.All, SPAlertFrequency.Immediate);
                        user.Update();

                    }

                }

            });


}

          You can try sticking to your original code getting the user from Web.SiteUsers and see if that still works.
