Indicator thresholds

Thresholds define a normal range of scores for an indicator and alert you when certain events occurs, like when a score reaches an all-time high.

When a threshold is triggered, the instance generates an email notification. This message is associated with the indicator and the message is directly available via the Analytics Hub or KPI Details.

A threshold can be personal or global. A personal threshold is visible only to the user that created it and appears as a light grey dotted line, a global threshold is visible to all users and appears as a dark grey dotted line. Personal thresholds appear only on the Analytics Hub and KPI Details. The matrix of threshold visibility follows:

표 1. Features that show thresholds

Platform Analytics experience feature	Equivalent Core UI feature	Global or Personal targets
KPI Details	Analytics Hub	Global and personal
Time series Platform Analytics data visualizations	Time series Performance Analytics widgets	Global
Dashboards in Platform Analytics containing time series data visualizations that show thresholds	Responsive dashboards containing Time series Performance Analytics widgets that show thresholds	Global
Proactive analytics insights cards on Platform Analytics dashboards, which show thresholds being breached	No equivalent	Global

Global thresholds can also appear on Performance Analytics time series widgets and data visualizations. Platform Analytics dashboards can alert viewers to events related to thresholds through proactive analytics insights cards.
