There are three main types of alerts.

Single value

  • only used on single value visualizations.
  • should alert based on the value used in the vis (first row only)

Time Series

  • used when there is a date/time dimension on the result
  • checks all new rows that have not been seen before (based on the time series dimension)

Categorical

  • used when not single value or time series.
  • checks all rows and pivot values unless a specific row or pivot value was selected when the alert was created.
