Edit Threshold

This page walks through updating the Min and Max thresholds on a Volumetric or Metric check directly from its chart in the Observability tab. For the conceptual overview of thresholds, see the Deep Dive.

Permissions

You need the Author team permission (or above) on the datastore to change thresholds. See Observability Permissions for the full matrix.

Threshold edits are inline

Only the Min and Max values can be changed from the chart. Measurement Period, Comparison, and Last Asserted stay read-only in the editor. To change any other property (Description, Tags, Metadata, comparison type), open the full check-edit flow from the Quality Checks section.

Steps

Step 1: In the chart header, click Edit Thresholds next to the check selector.
