The Postman Insights **Alerts** tab provides a centralized alert system for endpoint error rates to help you catch and fix critical issues. With Insights alerts you can adjust error rate thresholds, find and view problematic endpoints, hide or display alerts globally for specific endpoints, and integrate your alerts with Slack.
