HTTP Monitor : Match String X times - alert

Question

Looking to parse a page for text like "failed", but don't want to generate an alert if it finds it during one polling interval.

I'd like to set the alert if the text "failed" shows up across multiple polling intervals. Is this even possible?

I know this exists for the Windows Event Log APMs.

You can do this in the alert logic. On the Trigger Condition tab there is a spot where you can set a delay "Do not trigger this action until condition exists for more than".  Just set the delay as a multiple of the polling cycle for however many fails you want to consider as down.
