[VIDEO] How to Use the Error State Tracking Page

Summary

The Error State Tracking Page shows you all the errors that have occurred on your synthetic monitors, as well as other related information, such as the duration of  each error. 

In this guide, learn about

• the high level metric widgets at the top of the page
• the searchable table of errors
• updating a monitor directly from the Error State Tracking Page

High Level Metrics

At the top of the page you will notice three widgets

• On the far left, you see the average time of all errors on the page. In this example, that's 8 minutes.
• To the right of that, you'll see the percentage of downtime. Click the clock icons at the top of this widget to toggle between viewing downtime and uptime.
• On the far right, you can use the Synthetic Error Status widget to see the percentage of synthetic monitors experiencing errors in red

Searchable Table

Moving down the page, we have a searchable table of all errors on synthetic monitors

• type in the search bar to find the error you are looking for
• see the time the error occurred, its duration, and other information here
• click the headers at the top to sort the errors by that category
• click the export button in the top right to see the export options and save the data for later
• click the sliders on the far right of the table to mask individual errors from appearing in the high level metrics at the top of the page

Update Monitors 

In the top left, there are several buttons you can use to personalize this page. 

To update monitors in error state directly from the Error State Tracking Page, click Log to see the errors in the Log format. 

This view of the errors can be exported as well by clicking the export button in the top right. 

Click the edit icon to the right of the log date to take a look at specific monitors from this list and update them.
