Hi all,

Is there any way to configure the baseline and static threshold on the&nbsp; **Service Method/Request Level**?

We have a specific request under global service that need to be adjusted because it generate a lot of alerts.

Thanks and good day.

Yes, if you mark it as a key request you can configure those settings for that request separately from the overall service:&nbsp;[Monitor key requests in Services Classic — Dynatrace Docs](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/how-to-use-dynatrace/transactions-and-services/analysis/monitor-key-requests/#custom-alerting-thresholds)

Hello,

Dynatrace provides this functionality in the form of Key Requests. In Dynatrace, you are able to define specific requests as Key Requests within a Service - this allows you to set custom thresholds, configure dashboard tiles for the Key Request, and gather metric data via the API. More information on how to configure a Key Request and configure the custom alerting thresholds you are seeking can be found here:&nbsp;[Monitor key requests in Services Classic — Dynatrace Docs](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/shortlink/key-requests)&nbsp;.

Hope this helps.

-Ryan

Hello,

You can define thresholds for Key Requests in the Anomaly Detection settings of the service itself. As shown in this screenshot:
