Selected Answer: D
According to the Databricks documentation, queries that use query parameters cannot be used with Alerts. This is because Alerts do not support user input or dynamic values. Alerts leverage queries with parameters using the default value specified in the SQL editor for each parameter. Therefore, if the query uses a Date query parameter, the alert will always use the same date range as the default value, regardless of the actual date. This may cause the alert to not work as expected, or to not trigger at all.

Be aware that alerts do work with parameterized queries https://docs.databricks.com/en/sql/user/alerts/index.html
