    Is alert only available for Push button? How do we assign alert to a toggle button?

    You should be able to assign an Alert to a toggle button the same way. I have not tried this before, I would suggest having a play and see what you come up with. There is a workflow action you can use to produce the alerts from custom workflows as well.
