HTTP/Page Load Response Headers alerting
The Kentik Synthetics HTTP/API and Web Page Load tests now support checking of the HTTP Response Headers to determine the Health condition of the test.
The user can configure one or more expected Response Headers:
- If the Value is omitted, then any value will be considered valid
- Value can be specified as a regular expression
- Value can be specified as a comma-separated list of possible valid values
If the configured headers exist in the response, but are not equal to the expected values, or do not exist in the Response at all, the test health will be set to Critical.
The screenshot below demonstrates the example configuration of this feature.
