Bad request from /find_v2/{*query} New Relic error

Seeing this in a couple of different site's New Relic error stats. Not massive counts but occuring every now and then.

/find_v2/{*query} 400 Bad Request

Listing occurences seems like /find_v2/_track is the path.

Haven't gotten hold of a complete occurence request data yet but someone might already know a cause or fix?

Hi,

_track might return 400 errors depending on the query string. There are a number of possible validation errors (should be returned in the response if you get hold of it). The most common issue would be that q (i.e the query to track is not set).

Thanks!

A suggestion might be to use 422 (unprocessable entity) instead. I think New Relic won't pick up that as an actual error that affects the error rate stats.

There is the possibility to exclude http error codes in NR also:

Not sure if this is an option for DXC Service though.
