Topline Alerts are available in Statsig Cloud and Statsig Warehouse Native. Statsig currently supports three types of Topline Alerts: | Alert Condition Type | When to Use | Example | | -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | **Threshold** | Use when you want to stay above or below a fixed number. | “Alert me when P90 latency spikes above 15 seconds.” | | **Change** | Use when the absolute size of the change matters. | “Alert me when hourly P90 latency increases by 10 seconds.” | | **Change (%)** | Use when the relative size of the change matters more than raw numbers. | “Alert me when hourly P90 latency increases by 50%.” | ## Creating a Topline Alert Go to Analytics → Topline Alerts in the product menu. Click +Create and give the new alert a name.
