Teams Filter Behavior
When you apply a Teams filter, results for subsequently added filter values will change to reflect objects associated with the selected Team(s). Example: If you add a Teams filter to return results for Team A, and then add a Services filter, you will only be able to select services associated with Team A.
If you apply a Teams filter after applying another filter that has a value not associated with that Team, the Teams filter will remove the value for the previous filter. Example: If you add a Services filter for Service B, and then you apply a Teams filter for Team A (not associated with Service B), then Service B will be removed from the Services filter value.

Metric
Description
Total Incidents
Total count of incidents matching the active filters.
Total Response Effort

The user-defined incident duration, if it exists, is used for this calculation. Please read Edit Incident Duration for more information.
MTTA
MTTA is the average amount of time from when an incident is created until the time the first responder acknowledges an incident. Excludes incidents that were not acknowledged.
MTTR
MTTR is the average amount of time from when an incident was created until it was resolved. Excludes incidents that have not been resolved.

Export Size Limit
Depending on your pricing plan, there is a limit to the number of rows you can export.
If your exported report exactly matches the limit, it is likely that your data has been truncated. You can reference your report in the PagerDuty web app to see the total count (e.g., Total Incidents). We recommend adding filters, or adjusting the date range, to reduce results, and exporting in batches as needed.
