I cover the new ability to manage metric alerts in Tableau Pulse. You can now toggle notifications on or off for specific metrics, so instead of receiving everything in one big notification splurge you can tune alerts to your current priorities, including on Tableau Mobile.

## Key takeaways

- You can toggle Tableau Pulse alerts on or off for individual metrics
- This lets you tune notifications to your current priorities rather than getting everything at once
- The metric alert management carries through to Tableau Mobile
