Benchmarks the last 20 successful runs (minimum 5 required) and alerts when a run exceeds the calculated average.

1

Open the pipeline → click edit icon next to Notification.

2

Enable "Send Notification if Run Time Exceeds Avg Run Time".

Committer-based notifications - Salesforce only

For Salesforce pipelines (validation, deployment, unit tests, code analysis) — routes failure alerts directly to the developer who made the commit.

1

Open the pipeline → click edit icon next to Notification

2

Enable Email Notifications + "Notify user who triggered the pipeline".

3

Select the Notification Level and save.
