| Choose from the available trigger options: | ||
|
|
||
| - **When above value**: Set an absolute threshold for failed events (e.g., 1,500 failed events per hour) | ||
| - **On any issue**: Alert immediately when any failed events are detected |

"Immediately" makes it sound like it overrides the delivery window - we could remove it.

A sligly modified version here, up to you if you would like to use it:
#### Insights from recent data
When you configure a threshold alert, the Insights panel displays data from the last 7 days to help you choose an appropriate threshold:
- **Average event volume** – Shows the average counts of valid and failed events (per relevant time unit).
- **Suggested threshold** – Provides a recommended value based on recent patterns.
- **Apply suggestion** – Click to insert the suggested value into the threshold field.
Use these insights to set realistic thresholds that reflect your actual event patterns.
**Alert delivery:** If the trigger condition is met, the alert is sent at most once per delivery interval you selected.
