To set the thresholds for slow query incidents, under the Admin menu, select Configuration, and go the Incidents tab.

Key	Required?	Description
Severity	Required	See Incident Severity Level.
Duration	Required	The minimum duration for a query to be considered slow. Values are in seconds.

An example config.json snippet defining a Slow Query incident:

{  
 "monitoring":  {  
    "incidents":  {  
      "triggers":  [  
        {  
          "counter":  "DataQueryDuration",  
          "severity":  "critical",  
          "threshold":  45000  
        }  
      ]  
    }  
  }  
}

This Slow Query incident will trigger if a data query takes at least 45 seconds to execute.

Incidents can be configured per environment. As an example, for an environment whose identifier was “staging-environment” to trigger a warning when a data query takes longer than 30 seconds to execute, the configuration would look like:

{  
  "environments":  {  
    "staging-environment":  {  
     "monitoring":  {  
       "incidents":  {  
          "triggers":  [  
            {  
              "counter":  "DataQueryDuration",  
              "severity":  "warning",  
              "threshold":  30000  
            }  
          ]  
        }  
      }  
    }  
  }  
}

Key	Data Type	Required?	Description
counter	String	Required	Slow Query incidents use the DataQueryDuration identifier.
severity	String	Optional	See Incident Severity Level. Default value: Warning
threshold	Number	Required	The minimum duration for a query to be considered slow. Values are in milliseconds.
