Alert Rules
Set up automated alerts when your traffic metrics exceed defined thresholds.
In your dashboard, go to API Keys → select a key → Alerts tab.
Available Metrics
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
bot_rate | Percentage of requests identified as bots (0.0–1.0) |
request_count | Total number of requests in the time window |
error_rate | Percentage of requests with errors |
solve_rate | Percentage of successfully solved CAPTCHAs |
Operators & Windows
Operators: gt (greater than), lt (less than), eq (equals) — exactly these three abbreviations, not the characters >, < and =
Windows: 5m (5 minutes), 15m (15 minutes), 1h (1 hour), 24h (24 hours)
Notification Channels
- Email — sends an alert to your account email
- Webhook — sends a JSON payload to your configured webhook URL
- Slack — sends a formatted message to your Slack channel
After an alert fires, the same rule will not fire again within the configured time window (cooldown period).
Example: 'Notify me via Slack when the bot rate exceeds 50% in the last hour.'
