API response message in case of failure

[221bshashank]

suppose the specified conditions did not meet the API response, so it failed but the API response has a message, is it possible to show it in frontend? for eg.

    "plugins": {
        "healthy": false,
        "message": "There are 2 failed plugins: abc; def",
        "duration": 0,
        "timestamp": "2023-11-03T20:15:24.806Z"
    }

Just so I understand correctly, you're asking if an endpoint returns an error in one of the parameters from the body, you'd like bubble up that error to the UI?

If so, couldn't you just do something like add the condition [BODY].message == "" (assuming the message parameter only gets populated if healthy is false) & the message would be displayed in the tooltip when you hover the failed condition on the UI?

That's a good suggestion actually for one of the use cases, but what if gatus is showing Invalid character 'u' looking for beginning of value, and when I did a get call to the endpoint the response I got is unauthorized: members ["token:check"] cannot perform action "system:status:get" on resource "system:service:status" filtered by projects []

can I give nested condition like if "healthy"== false, then check for message, because my API call pops up the error message parameter only when the healthy is false. so when I am placing a permanent condition in Gatus config of message it is failing saying invalid parameter
