Hi. From my APM page, I have setup a high transaction duration ML job. I am only able to base it from the service.environment. The issue with this is that one service, in the environment is red a lot, and we don't really care. Is there any way that I can filter out this one service.name so it stops triggering my alerting rule?

Hi,

you can try to filter it. When you create the job, you can add a filter to the `service.name` field to exclude the service you're not interested in.
