	68	+=== 3.3 Messages added to topic ===
	69	+
	70	+For this category, you can add additional "dynamic" alerts. These alerts only trigger when the messages added to one or more topic is less than X messages per Y minutes. On top of the number of messages (X) and the timeframe (Y), you can define whether to validate this on a specific topic or all topics. Note that the default configuration is that the alert applies to all topics.

	74	+You can uncheck the checkbox to check on a specific (set of) topic(s). As a result, the "Add" and "Remove" buttons are displayed by eMagiz, through which you can add and remove topics to the trigger.

	78	+For this trigger, additional criteria can be configured that allow you to define when eMagiz needs to validate this configuration (i.e., Occurence). With the help of this configuration option, you can specify when the trigger needs to be evaluated. An example could be only on Monday between 04:00 AM and 05:00 AM.

	80	+=== 3.4 Topic consumer lag ===
	81	+
	82	+For this category, you can add additional "dynamic" alerts. These alerts only trigger when one (or more) consumer groups lag by X messages on one (or more) topic(s). Note that the default configuration is that you, as a user, need to specify for which topic(s) the alert applies, as consumers' behavior can vary widely.
