The host search option "The found hosts' (with child filtering)" was broken since the BI rework 2 years ago. Any attempt to save this setting lead to an exception.

The fix for this problem required a small change in the API specification for the refer_to field

"refer_to": "host" -> "refer_to": {"type": "host"}
"refer_to": "child" -> "refer_to": {"type": "child"}
"refer_to": "parent" -> "refer_to": {"type": "parent"}
"refer_to": {was broken} -> "refer_to": {"type": "child_with", "conditions": {..}}
