Configuring Alerts & Reports

Discover how to configure Alerts & Reports in Tathya, enabling event-triggered notifications and scheduled notifications for effective data monitoring and analysis.

Now that you've successfully created charts and added them to dashboards, the next crucial step is to set up Alerts and Reports. The Alerts & Reports feature in Tathya enables creating event-triggered notifications (Alerts) or scheduled notifications (Reports).

What is an Alert?

An alert provides a custom link to a chart or an entire dashboard and is triggered when a predefined event occurs. This event is a logical condition within your data.

What is a Report?

A report offers a snapshot of a chart or an entire dashboard, accompanied by a link for further exploration and slicing & dicing of the query. Unlike alerts, reports run on a defined schedule (e.g., daily at 7 pm, weekly, etc.).

  1. In the Toolbar, hover over Settings.

  2. From the drop-down menu, select Alerts & Reports.

Upon reaching the Alerts & Reports screen, the Alerts interface is displayed by default. You can easily toggle between the Alerts and Reports tabs to control the content they wish to view.

Below the Alerts and Reports tabs is “Last Updated” information, this simply conveys when the screen was last updated with data. You can force refresh the page by selecting the circular “Refresh” icon.

The filters and search features enable you to quickly find the alert or report that you're looking for, which is invaluable when there are many entries.
