Query Explanation

The query calculates, per Cloudflare zone, the percentage of HTTP requests that returned a 4xx status over the last 15 minutes (using rate to get per‑second request rates) and triggers when this 4xx error rate exceeds 5 %. In other words, if more than five percent of the total requests for a domain are client‑error responses in the recent 15‑minute window, the alert fires.
