# /diseases/outbreaks/distribution/{country_code}/alerts

GET https://api.gideononline.com/diseases/outbreaks/distribution/G292/alerts

Returns **recently updated** outbreak rows for a **single reporting country**, using the same handler and **`return=simple` / `detailed`** shapes as **`GET /diseases/outbreaks/distribution/{country_code}`** (simple = full `data` array; detailed = extra fields + pagination with **`limit`** / **`offset`**).

**Time window:** rows must have **`last_update_date`** on or after midnight **N** calendar days ago (**`days`**), **and** either **`outbreak_start`** or **`outbreak_end`** equal to the **current calendar year** (server clock). This path does **not** apply the outbreak/sporadic-only type filter used when **`year`** is applied on the non-alerts distribution route. Do not pass **`year`** on this path, or the server will use that year-based branch instead of this rolling window.

**`days`:** optional; default **5**. Must be ≤ server **`max_alert_days`** or the API returns **404** with `days can't be greater than …`.

Compare **`GET /diseases/outbreaks/alerts`** (worldwide, different query naming in older Postman examples). For a fixed calendar year across types, use **`GET /diseases/outbreaks/distribution/{country_code}?year=…`**.

- **`outbreak_start`** / **`outbreak_end`** in responses are **deprecated** in favor of **`outbreak_first_reported`** / **`outbreak_last_reported`**.

#### **Path parameters**

| Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `country_code` | GIDEON country code for the reporting country. |

#### **Query parameters**

| Name | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `days` | No | Integer look-back days (default **5**; capped by **`max_alert_days`**). |
| `return` | No | `simple` (default) or `detailed`. |
| `limit` / `offset` | No | For **`detailed`** only. |
