Thank you for your reply.
We use the blackbox exporter for our end-to-end probing. The result of 
those probes we display in Grafana.
The Problem is that it is sometimes flaky. We probe every 15s and we have 
quite some services which we probe against.
Now sometimes the monitoring gets red because the token has already expired 
when blackbox exporter is executing the request.
How can we overcome this?
