Threshold
Up to three threshold rules can be set for the Live Contacts in Queue metric. To learn more about how to use thresholds, see Configuring Talkdesk Live Widgets: Overview.
While thresholds can be set for any metric widget, as a best practice we generally recommend they be reserved for metrics that are averages or percentages rather than for metrics that are counts of contacts, such as Live Contacts in Queue.
Filters
You can filter the Live Contacts in Queue metric by the queue. This filter applies to the queues in which the contacts are waiting to be connected to an agent.
See Configuring Talkdesk Live Widgets: Overview for important information about how widget filters are applied to metrics.
