External error IDs
The External error IDs dimension reports unique error identifiers from any source outside the player SDK (for example, CDN errors). The player must provide the codes or IDs at implementation time via the error tracking API. Multiple error IDs per session are supported.
How this dimension is populated
The player passes external error IDs to the tracker on error events. The backend collects unique IDs across the session and reports them on the close call.
