7.Optionally, refine the metric by adjusting **Period** and **Aggregation**. If the metric has dimensions, you will see **Dimensions** table presented. Select one or more values per dimension. The metric alert will run evaluate the condition for all combinations of values selected. [Learn more about how alerting on multi-dimensional metrics works](alerts-metric-overview.md). You can also **Select \*** for any of the dimensions. **Select \*** will dynamically scale the selection to all current and future values for a dimension.

8. You will see a chart for the metric for the last 6 hours. Define the alert parameters; **Condition Type**, **Frequency**, **Operator** and **Threshold** or **Sensitivity**, this will determine the logic which the metric alert rule will evaluate.
