.NET attribute examples

Here are examples of using attributes with the New Relic .NET agent.

Disable all attributes

In this example, attributes are disabled. The include and exclude lists will be ignored, and all attributes will be filtered out.

Configuration:

<attributes enabled="false" />

Input keys:

foo, bar, request.parameters.foo, request.parameters.bar

Output for destinations:

transaction_tracer: none
error_collector: none
transaction_events: none
browser_monitoring: none

Select specific destinations

In this example:

  • Attributes are disabled for transaction traces. The include and exclude lists will be ignored, and all attributes will be filtered out for this destination.
  • Attributes are disabled for by default.
  • Request parameters (prefixed with request.parameters.) are off by default for all destinations.

As a result, only bar is sent in traced errors and transaction events.

Configuration:

<attributes enabled="true">
<exclude>foo</exclude>
</attributes>
<transactionTracer>
<attributes enabled="false" />
</transactionTracer>

Input keys:

foo, bar, request.parameters.foo, request.parameters.bar

Output for destinations:

transaction_tracer: none
error_collector: bar
transaction_events: bar
browser_monitoring: none

Select values and destinations

In this example, specific input keys are selected for certain output destinations and excluded from others.

  • The food.fruit.banana key will be excluded only from transaction traces.
  • The food and food.bread keys will be excluded from all destinations.

Configuration:

<attributes enabled="true">
<exclude>food*</exclude>
<include>food.fruit.*</include>
</attributes>
<transactionTracer>
<attributes enabled="true">
<exclude>food.fruit.banana</exclude>
</attributes>
</transactionTracer>

Input keys:

food, food.bread, food.fruit.banana, food.fruit.apple

Output for destinations:

transaction_tracer: food.fruit.apple
error_collector: food.fruit.banana, food.fruit.apple
transaction_events: food.fruit.banana, food.fruit.apple
browser_monitoring: food.fruit.banana, food.fruit.apple

Emulating legacy server-side attribute behavior

In this example, the agent collects request parameters and records them to the transaction tracer and error collector destinations. This emulates enabling the legacy server-side configuration settings for Capture attributes or Capture parameters options. Customize the following <attributes> elements in your .NET agent configuration file:

<transactionTracer>
<attributes>
<include>request.parameters*</include>
</attributes>
</transactionTracer>
<errorCollector>
<attributes>
<include>request.parameters*</include>
</attributes>
</errorCollector>
