Please explain the use-case. According to your question I assume you would like Dynatrace to send an alert for every load page action of an application that takes more than 3 seconds?

Hi,

I should send an alert every time loading a specific page to take more than 3 seconds.

Solomon,

Have you looked into marking a page load as a Key User Action and then setting the anomaly detection for the specific page load?

Here is a link to the blog post for key user actions:

>
> Anomaly detection uses AI to identify deviations from established patterns. Anything abnormal is considered an anomaly.
