### Recovery threshold
To reduce the noise from flapping alerts, you can set a recovery threshold so that the alert returns to the `Normal` state only after the recovery threshold is crossed.
To reduce the noise from flapping alerts, you can set a recovery threshold so that the alert returns to the `Normal` or `Recovering` state only after the recovery threshold is crossed.
Flapping alerts occur when the query value repeatedly crosses above and below the alert threshold, causing frequent state changes. This results in a series of firing-resolved-firing notifications and a noisy alert state history.

To prevent this, you can set a recovery threshold to define two thresholds instead of one:
1. An alert transitions to the `Pending` or `Alerting` state when the alert threshold is crossed.
1. An alert transitions back to `Normal` state only after the recovery threshold is crossed.
1. An alert transitions to the `Pending` or `Alerting` state when it crosses the alert threshold.
1. It then transitions to the `Recovering` or `Normal` state only when it crosses the recovery threshold.
In the previous example, setting the recovery threshold to 900ms means the alert only resolves when the latency falls below 900ms:
