Hi LenderLive_Mitch, you hit on an interesting issue here. v1 iApp templates came along before the iControl REST and iWorkflow, and were targeted at addressing most (but not all) deployment scenarios. Since HTTP connections are relatively short-lived, we followed the default guidance for Action on Service Down thinking it would be appropriate for the 90% of use cases we aim to address.
That said, we understand that users are trying to deploy programmatically and we've started making changes to the HTTP iApp to make that easier. I will add your request as possible change to the iApp.
In the meantime, it should be possible to automate the change to Action on Service Down using REST, post-deployment (although maybe not via iWorkflow).
thanks
