Data Alerts

[vibhu22oct]

Can it be possible to send notification in form of email or on Superset when KPI value reach beyond or less than threshold value defined by user?

Yes, Superset supports automated data alerts that can send notifications via email (and Slack) when a KPI value crosses a user-defined threshold. You can set up an alert by defining a SQL query that returns a numeric KPI, choose an operator (like <, >, <=, >=, ==, !=, or "not null"), and specify the threshold value. When the condition is met, Superset will send notifications to the recipients you configure, including support for To, CC, and BCC fields in email notifications (docs, code, feature PR).

To use this feature, you need to:

• Enable the ALERT_REPORTS feature flag in your superset_config.py
• Configure SMTP settings for email notifications
• Set up Celery workers, Celery beat, and Redis for scheduling and delivery
• Install a headless browser (Firefox or Chrome, Playwright recommended for Chrome) in your worker environment for screenshot support

Superset does not currently support native in-app notifications for alerts; notifications are sent via email or Slack (docs). For more details and setup instructions, check the official documentation.
