This chart, which is exclusive to gateway analytics, displays the distribution of your API requests.

Use these filters for all charts:

• All: View all requests.
• Request Policies: View the failed or rejected requests from the request flow.
• Response Policies: View the failed or rejected requests from the response flow.
• Service: View the failed or rejected requests at the back end.

Use one of the following filters for the Rejection Rate and Error Rate charts:

• No policy filter: View all the requests.
• Show Policy Instances: View the errors or rejections from each instance of a policy. For example, if errors or rejections are generated from multiple header validation policies, then all header validation policy errors or rejections are displayed as a single data point.
• Show Policy Types: View the errors or rejections for each policy type. For example, if errors or rejections are generated from multiple header validation policies, all header validation policy errors are displayed as separate data points.
• Built-in Policy Types: View the failed or rejected requests by OAuth2Validator, SLAEnforcement, or Sender policies.

You can use the Show Policy Instances and Show Policy Types filters only for the Rejection Distribution and the Error Distribution charts.
