Is it possible to set a single Cloudwatch Alarm for an API Gateway so that it should listen out for 4xx AND 5xx errors?
My goal is that the alarm should have a threshold of say 10 errors in 5 minutes, and it should be triggered by either of these two errors.
So if there are five 4xx errors and five 5xx errors it should go into alarm.
- Is this possible?
- If yes, is this good practice or is it better to have 2 alarms, one for each, 4xx and 5xx?
- I'm using aws cdk for python, so as a bonus I'd appreciate if you can answer to that direction.
Thanks
