Configuring Fixed Thresholds

Fixed thresholds perform comparison operations between numeric metrics and a specified value. For example, you can define a fixed threshold to check that no values in the field “Age” are less than zero. When the validator detects data matching the conditions, it creates an incident and sends an alert to any configured channels.

You can also configure Dynamic Thresholds, which automatically adjust based on historical data patterns.

The following table lists the parameters for configuring a fixed threshold. Configuration options differ depending on the type of validator.
