Monitoring glossary

What each term means here, described by how the detection engine actually behaves.

Expected interval
How often a workflow should run — parsed from its cron configuration, or learned from execution history when the cadence is regular enough to trust.Last updated
Grace period

Missed run
A missed run is a scheduled workflow execution that never happened — detected by absence rather than by an error, because nothing failed.Last updated
Root-cause suppression
Root-cause suppression sends one alert about a downed instance instead of one alert per workflow on it — the difference between a signal and a flood.Last updated
