You can configure the threshold for platform and application metrics to trigger alerts that the Infoblox Platform sends to specific users and user groups. You can also choose to receive service notifications when specific services are down. As an administrator, after you configure the thresholds for respective metrics and select applicable service notifications, you can then choose the delivery methods for specific user groups. Infoblox Platform offers two delivery methods: email and in-app delivery. For information on notification delivery, see *[Configuring Notification Delivery](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BloxOneCloud/pages/35398691)*.
