## Overview

<div class="alert alert-danger">Datasets that include Flex Logs are not supported.</div>

Dataset monitors enable you to alert on advanced log analysis by leveraging all Notebooks advanced analysis features. With Dataset monitors, you can:

- Query multiple data sources
- Chain data transformations
- Run complex SQL queries
- Create sophisticated analysis workflows

Dataset monitors offer full Notebook analysis features, letting you alert on complex data patterns not easily detected with standard monitors.

Use '' instead of 'easily'.

## Monitor creation

You can create a Dataset monitor in two ways:

### From the Monitors page

Check warning on line 33 in content/en/monitors/types/dataset.md

GitHub Actions / vale

Datadog.headings

'From the Monitors page' should use sentence-style capitalization.

To create a [Dataset monitor][1] in Datadog, use the main navigation: **Monitors > New Monitor > Dataset**.

### From a Notebook

To create a Dataset monitor directly from a Notebook:

1. Open a Notebook with an Analysis cell containing your desired query.
2. In the Analysis cell, click the dropdown arrow next to **Save to Dashboard**.
3. Select **Create monitor**.

This allows you to seamlessly convert your exploratory analysis into an alerting monitor.

## Define the query

Dataset monitors use the same query interface as Notebook Analysis cells.

1. **Select your dataset**: [To confirm] Select from available Notebook Analysis cells.
2. **Filter your dataset**: [To confirm] Filter your results by column.
3. **Preview results**: View the output of your query before setting alert conditions.

## Set alert conditions

Configure monitors to trigger if the query value crosses a threshold, and customize advanced alert options for recovery thresholds and evaluation delays. For more information, see [Configure Monitors][2].

## Notifications

For detailed instructions on alert messaging, see [Notifications][3].
