Describe the bug
Alert names can contain special characters that are invalid in filenames (e.g. :, /, %, $) which cause the export to fail.
The export file name is created up to the point of the invalid character, there is no file extension, and the file is empty.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior
The export filename is expected to match the alert name; the extension should be xml, the file should contain the alert code.
Actual behavior
The export file name is created up to the point of the invalid character, there is no file extension, and the file is empty.
Environment (please complete the following information):
Workaround(s)
Remove the invalid character(s)
Additional context
Invalid characters are not allowed in other areas, e.g. Channel names.
