Question

For the ErrorMetrics in Get Metrics endpoint, the description on the Standards states the 'Number of calls resulting in error due to server execution over time'.

Does this include all 4xx and 5xx errors apart from 429?

The assumption is to not include 429 (too many request) errors as these are part of RejectionMetrics. 

Answer

The list of errors is not intended to include all 4xx errors as these mainly arise from client action (improper authentication, malformed requests, etc).  The error metric is intended for errors arising from server execution failure (as stated in the standards).  This implies 5xx error codes.
