--To enhance the observability of your integration landscape while running in the current generation runtime architecture, we provide a functionality in the Manage phase called "Dynamic Alerts." You can access this functionality via the "Alerting" menu in Manage. Then, with the help of the "Trigger" overview, you can view all triggers in your environment. From there on, you can navigate to the "Other" tab.

  === 3.1 Error message ===
--On top of the "static" alert that is autogenerated by eMagiz on Error messages, you can add additional "dynamic" alerts that only trigger when an error message is raised for which a specific header contains a particular value. This is most likely relevant when a specific error message with certain characteristics (i.e., a particular header value) needs to be sent to a different set of recipients.

++=== 3.3 Queue consumers ===
--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.
++On top of the "static" alert that is autogenerated by eMagiz on Queue consumers you can add additional "dynamic" alerts that only trigger when the number of consumers on a (specific) set of queues is below a certain threshold.
--[[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-alerting-dynamic-alerting--dynamic-alert-messages-added-to-topic-all-topics.png]]
++To define the trigger first define the threshold on which you want to check (i.e. 2). Subsequently define whether on which queues (or all queues) you want eMagiz to check for this condition. If you want to check on all queues no further action is needed.
--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.

--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.

--=== 3.4 Topic consumer lag ===
++When you press the "Add" button a new pop-up will appear through which you can select the queues for which you want the trigger to be activated. In this pop-up you can select one (or more) queues and press the "Select" button to add them to the trigger.
--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.

--In the same "Output" tab, you can also define the congestion control configuration. The default configuration is that congestion control will be activated once more than ten alerts are triggered in the last ten minutes. So should you want to reduce this number, you can do so here.
