The Real-time Alarm function of Agora Analytics enables you to view users who have poor communication experiences, recognize abnormal categories and quality factors.
Overview displays the real-time statistics of users experiencing poor communication experiences in a card view. The left side of the card shows the current value (or the value at the specified moment) of the metric, along with the ratio, maximum, average, and minimum values for that metric. The right side shows the per-minute statistics for a specified time frame as a line chart.

This section describes the key terms used in Real-time Alarm. See Glossary for more information.
Every call or interactive streaming occurs in a channel. If you imagine an app as a building, a channel is a room in the building.
Real-time Alarm does not count a channel by name, but by lifecycle. It counts a channel each time from the first user joining it to the last user leaving it.
Each user in the channel has a unique user ID.
Real-time Alarm counts a unique username in a unique channel as one user. If a real-life user joins one channel with multiple, different usernames, or joins different channels with one username, Real-time Alarm counts users in both situations as multiple users.
During a call, users may experience quality issues, such as audio freeze or video freeze, caused by various factors. Agora calls this as a poor communication experience. See Experience ID for more information.
