Every metric in Pathlight can have High, Medium, Low or No Priority. Priority levels impact health scores, natural language summaries, and notifications, and also help your team stay focused on what matters the most, so it's important to set the appropriate priority levels for all of your metrics. If you don't want a metric to factor into a health score at all (to effectively "mute" it), set it to "No Priority."
