# Setting application thresholds

Nexthink Applications allows you to configure thresholds at the web application level, as you may require different performance standards for various applications. If you don’t customize the thresholds, the system applies default settings automatically.

After [configuring the fields in the General tab](/user-guide/applications/setting-up-and-managing-applications/configuring-applications.md#adding-url-patterns) of the web application settings, navigate to the **Thresholds** tab to activate metric thresholds:

* Add border values—in seconds—in the **Average** and **Frustrating** fields for **Page load time** and/or **Transaction duration**.

{% hint style="info" %}
After setup, the related application monitoring dashboard adapts the **Page loads** /or **Transactions** gauge-type widgets to the configured thresholds, using colors to visually appraise **good**, **average**, and **frustrating** values.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.nexthink.com/user-guide/applications/setting-up-and-managing-applications/configuring-applications/configuring-web-applications/thresholds.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
