--allowed-errors option missing

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Feedback

The example mentioned in the docs does not work. It appears the option --allowed-errors isn't available. I also don't see it when running devproxy --help

Can you share the contents of your devproxyrc.json file?

Hi @waldekmastykarz, here it is, but does that matter for a missing option?

{

    },
    {

      "enabled": true,

    }

You're using the GenericRandomErrorPlugin. --allowed-errors is specific to the GraphRandomErrorPlugin: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-cloud/dev/dev-proxy/technical-reference/graphrandomerrorplugin

Hi @waldekmastykarz, here it is, but does that matter for a missing option?

A while back, we refactored options, so that plugin-specific options are only exposed, when the corresponding plugin is enabled. Otherwise, you'd get an option that doesn't affect how Dev Proxy work which would be confusing.

💡Ah, I see now! Sorry, I've just completely misread this. It turns out there is no issue at all, except between the chair and the screen over here 😅 Let's close this ASAP!

All good! Better safe than sorry. Thanks for reaching out
