Settings API - HTTP failure detection parameters schema table
HTTP failure detection parameters (builtin:failure-detection.service.http-parameters)
Dynatrace failure detection automatically detects the vast majority of error conditions in your environment. However, detected service errors don't necessarily mean that the underlying requests have failed. There may be cases where the default service failure detection settings don't meet your particular needs. In such cases, you can configure the settings provided below. Please note that these settings are not applicable to services of type 'Span service'. For complete details, see configure service failure detection.
