Set Alerts on SLO violation or trends on dashboards Merged

I have many SLO dashboards with respect to different Application/Service/Endpoint that in turn is defining one user journey and SLIs related to that. But I have no way to set alert for the trends in SLO observation via dashboard. 

We tried to do it separately using Smart Alert to Endpoint or Application level but in Smart Alerts we don't really have option to set Rolling time window for a day or  week. The option to select 24 hours or last 7 days is just there so that we can preview the historical data in order to determine a good threshold.

It would be great if we have a way to set alerts on SLO violation or trends on dashboard itself .
