Error rate spike - concentrate

Error rate spike alerts you when the share of failed requests goes above a percentage you set. Use it as an early warning that something is broken — a misconfigured client, an outage at a provider, or a bad deploy on your end.

When to use it

Catching elevated failure rates before users start complaining.
Knowing when an integration is silently failing in the background.
Tracking provider-side issues without watching dashboards.

This alert needs enough traffic for the percentage to be meaningful — very low-volume accounts may not see it fire often.

What you configure

Setting	What it does
Threshold Percentage	The error rate that triggers the alert (e.g. `10` for 10%).
Scope	Whose traffic to watch — your personal traffic, or your organization’s.
Schedule	How often to evaluate — hourly, daily, or weekly.

Organization scope is available if your role can see organization-level traffic.

How you’re notified

Email and/or SMS, based on your preferences in Settings → Notifications. See the alerts overview for delivery details and cooldown behavior.
