Intelligent Alerts overview
Intelligent Alerts (or just “alerts”) in Adobe Analytics allow you to be notified immediately when abnormal events occur in your data.
You can set alerts to be triggered based on anomaly thresholds, changed percentages, or specific data points. Alerts provide granular controls that integrate with Anomaly Detection, triggering when you need them most.
Intelligent Alerts let you:
- Build alerts based on anomalies (90%, 95%, 99%, 99.75%, and 99.9% thresholds; % change; above/below)
- Preview how often an alert will trigger
- Send alerts by e-mail or SMS with links to auto-generated Analysis Workspace projects
- Create “stacked” alerts that capture multiple metrics in a single alert
The following video tutorial provides a basic overview of alerts: Intelligent Alerts (5:34)
Anomaly lookback for alerts
If an alert uses anomaly detection, the training period varies based on the granularity selected for the alert.
- Monthly granularity: 15 months + same range last year
- Weekly granularity: 15 weeks + same range last year
- Daily granularity: 35 days + same range last year
- Hourly granularity: 336 hours
