Extract request count that contains a specific message

erh_inetum — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 14:14:45 GMT

Hi,

We have seen it's possible to get the number of requests that contain a specific message as it can be seen on the screenshot attach.

We would like to get this count to pin the number to a dashboard. We have seen that the column "Server Side failure rate reason" is the field "purePathsData.errorData.serverSide.exceptionMessage".

Is anyway to get or create this metric with the porpose of pin to dashboard that information?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Elena.

Hi Elena,

You can create a custom metric (calculated metric) for that, you can choose request count, then put the condition you want, then you can put this metric in a dashboard using the data explorer. please check the below document for further details.

Thanks,

Hi @Islam_Zedan

Thanks a lot! I was trying to create it using MDA and I didn´t know the condition "Exception message" exists.

Thanks again,

Elena.
