Trading View: how to use the fields from invite-only indicator, inside of my custom pine-script study?

Question

I am using an " invite-only " script, as a custom indicator. When the script is applied on the chart and I manually try to add an alert over this script, I can see there are some related fields which I can manage on the alert dialog. What I want to accomplish is to write a pine-script study where I will be able to call alertcondition(condition, title, message) and inside of the condition to use the custom fields which are indicator specific only. Considering that I don't have access to the code of the indicator, I can not alter the code from the " invite-only " script.

Is there any way which I can use the indicator related fields for creating the alert condition inside of my pine-script study? Any link / reference will be helpful, as I was not able to find any so far.

Answer 1

You can use another indicator as an input source.

data = input(title="Data", type=input.source, defval=close)

In the Data input dropdown, you should see the names of the plots of the invite-only indicator.
From there on, you can use that value in an alert.
For details, see How to code an input option for TradingView's 'apply indicator on indicator' feature?

Answer 2

This might be worth looking into. With luck the invite-only indicator produces output that can be used as an external source for this script:
