You can choose to treat events with errors as critical failures.

This enables you to identify instances where an event meets the compliance target but has a user experience status of Error.

For example, if you have defined Response Time of under 2000 milliseconds as the compliance target, an event with a response time of 100 milliseconds meets the compliance target, even if that event finished prematurely because of an error. In that case, XLM reporting that performance as Normal could be considered a false positive.

When you enable Treat Errors as Critical Failures, XLM will catch instances like this. Whether this option is optimal for your application is a subjective judgment for you to make.

Treat Errors as Critical Failures is only supported for event types that contain a user experience or similar field, as shown in the table below.
