Assertion specific Error Groups

Failing assertions for the API, URL, DNS, ICMP and TCP checks / monitors are now error grouped individually.
Previously, when one of the above checks or monitors failed due to one or more of its assertions failing, Checkly would create an error group named 1 of 3 assertions failed .

This was not ideal, as the one failing assertion of the three might not be the same always, but Checkly would still lump them into the same error group. This also would not trigger a new Rocky AI Root Cause Analysis (RCA) because the error group would not be new.

From today on, every failing assertion has its own dedicated error message bubbled up to the error group, triggering RCAโ€™s when the actual assertion surfaces a new error situation.

A failing assertion on an HTTP header is now recorded as a dedicated error group

The above screenshot illustrates the new grouping: A specific assertion on an HTTP header failed and is recorded as its own error group.

This is now live for all Checkly users on all plans.


Happy monitoring!
