A needle-ice partner API requires a signed header and a two-step login that a Standard availability test cannot complete. What should the developer use?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Standard tests are the default ping. When you need signed headers or a login dance, emit custom TrackAvailability. Do not pretend Redis or autoscale is that probe.
Full Explanation
Standard availability tests cover a single public request with configurable TLS, verb, and headers. Authenticated or multi-step partner flows often need a custom availability result via TrackAvailability (or the documented custom-test path). Classic URL ping, Redis watches, and autoscale are not that exception path.
