The length of regular expressions is limited in MV3, which is the latest iteration of the Chrome extension platform. (The Dynatrace Synthetic Recorder is a Google Chrome browser extension.) As a result, the length of URLs or match patterns you specify in browser monitor configuration to Block specific requests cannot exceed 90 characters. If your current string exceeds 90 characters:
- The Block specific requests setting is not applied and needs to be fixed to meet the 90-character limit.
- You will not be able to save certain changes to browser monitor configuration such as adding a request or validation. You can, however, change monitor name, frequency, outage handling, and thresholds. The Block specific requests setting needs to be fixed before you can save all changes.
