Persistent HTTP Monitor

CharlesPerez

I created an HTTP monitor with over 20 different http requests, and all http requests are from one endpoint only. 

Is there a way that I can make the HTTP monitor persistent? As observed, when one of the initial URL/endpoint has an error or timeout, the HTTP monitor stops and does not check the other URLs. Is this the common behavior for an HTTP monitor with chained HTTP request to monitor?

is there any way to bypass this, and make the HTTP monitor continue on error?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

I would suggest to split them in 20 HTTP monitors.

Hi @AntonPineiro,

 

Thank you for this! 

As per Dynatrace support, when a multi-step HTTP monitor fails, the execution continues to the next step by default. So this already achieves what I needed for the HTTP monitor that I have created.

Upon checking, the Private Synthetic Location I have created do not have access to the endpoints and will require configuration from the network side. So maybe this is what causing the HTTP monitor to fail as a whole.

Thanks!
