Unable to change HTTP Synthetic Monitor name – it keeps SYNTHETIC_TEST-*

[just23k2]

I’m creating Browser Synthetic monitors.
After creation, the monitor name remains with the default format SYNTHETIC_TEST-XXXX, even though I explicitly change the Monitor Name field in the configuration and save the changes.

Hi,
It should work.

Please try the following: Open the Browser Synthetic test --> Click View settings --> In the Monitor name field, change the name --> Save the changes.

After saving, the monitor should display the updated name correctly instead of the default SYNTHETIC_TEST-XXXX.

If it still doesn’t update:

• Refresh the page or re-open the test
• Make sure you’re editing the monitor name, not only the test description

I’ve renamed the monitor multiple times, however it still keeps the SYNTHETIC_TEST-* name.
Additionally, when I create a dashboard, both names appear

(the auto-generated SYNTHETIC_TEST-* and the custom name).

I’ve tested several options and noticed the following:

• This behavior only happens with Browser synthetic monitors

• For HTTP synthetic monitors, the dashboards display the correct synthetic monitor name without duplication

So far, the issue seems to be specific to Browser monitors, not HTTP monitors.

The url will always contain the monitor ID rather than the monitor name.

• What name is shown in the list of Synthetic monitors? As @t_pawlak showed in his screenshot, I would expect the updated name to show there. 
• What query/ config are you using for your dashboard?

Thanks
