The alerts do not disappear

[emartinezpinzon]

Hello everyone, I am launching alerts from JavaScript depending on the response from a server to which I make a request, as each response I throw a different alert and I need this alert to only spend some time on the air and then disappear.

As I read in the documentation there is the property duration, but I use it and when testing the alert it remains there only until I close it, but it is not exactly what I need.

I create the alerts as follows:

I would expect that after the alert appeared, it would remain on the screen for five seconds and then disappear, but this does not happen.

Thanks for reading, I hope someone can help me

Hello!

Per the docs, duration determines the time it takes to transition, not how long the alert should stay open. Either use setTimeout() or use Toast

It works in the following way

Thanks, I think this could be in the documentation. no matter how simple it is, it would help more than one.
