Metric rule triggering Proactive Engagement through alerts
Metric rules create an alert based on its trigger criteria.
Alert actions are triggered when an alert is created in the specified criteria. You can create an alert based on the values shared in the system properties. The system properties can be set as conditions based on which the alert action
is triggered. Applications and devices need a different set of system properties to be set. The alert action is triggered when an alert is created based on the specified criteria and the conditions met. Through system properties, you can
customize the values of these conditions.
- Alert action for this metric rule is not triggered in the last 72 hours for the user.
- Fewer than 100 users are impacted for this metric rule within an 8 hour window.
