1832456 - Remove or update probes expiring in Firefox 116: HTTP_AUTH_RESOURCE_TYPE before Gecko version gets increased to 116 on 2023-06-05

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, task, P2)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 116 [1].

HTTP_AUTH_RESOURCE_TYPE

What to do about this:

1. If one, some, or all of the metrics are no longer needed, please remove them from their definitions files (Histograms.json, Scalars.yaml, Events.yaml).
2. If one, some, or all of the metrics are still required, please submit a Data Collection Review [2] and patch to extend their expiry. There is a shorter form for data collection renewal [3].

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #data-help Slack channel or the #telemetry Matrix room at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#telemetry:mozilla.org. We'll give you a hand.

Tracking because at least browser/base/content/test/tabPrompts/browser_auth_spoofing_telemetry.js depends on it.
