# Destination reached!

Congratulations on completing this path! Job well done!

We hope you’ve enjoyed traveling with us as you:

- Opened and named your alert rule
- Switched the query editor to Code mode
- Wrote a PromQL error-rate query using two `rate()` calls and a ratio
- Set the alert condition, threshold, and recovery threshold
- Created a folder and added a severity label
- Configured the evaluation interval and pending period
- Confirmed no-data and error handling
- Chose a contact point, wrote the notification message, and saved the rule
- Suppressed notifications during maintenance with a silence

You now have a working alert rule whose error-rate query is written as clear PromQL in Code mode. That’s a pattern you’ll reuse whenever the query needs multi-step math.
