Failover Backends

Do not construct this object directly, instead access the failover_backends property of an ngrok.Client object.

class ngrok.services.FailoverBackendsClient(client)

A Failover backend defines failover behavior within a list of referenced backends. Traffic is sent to the first backend in the list. If that backend is offline or no connection can be established, ngrok attempts to connect to the next backend in the list until one is successful.
