Examples

Ignore a transaction

To ignore a transaction that you don't want to show up in the UI, you would run the following where a transaction is being generated in your app code. This example illustrates using the API to ignore a Flask route:

@app.route("/")
def process_results():
newrelic.agent.ignore_transaction(flag=True)
return 'hello world'
