Our requirement is to capture all the real time custom events ,app analytics from UI through APM. We want to build dashboards from these data.
I can see our APM service is created but can't see each and every events that are happening on UI after drilldown, not all the events were captured.
In above image we can see only agent name is captured but what if I want to create visualization to find the number of downloads per user per day.
I think there is no libraries or plugin in elastic APM to capture all the custom events.
If yes , please guide me.
Can you give a bit more detail on what you mean by custom events? Is it the case that perhaps you might want to add custom transactions to your code using the RUM agent similar to this example.
I'm explaining this with my requirement.
Example:
I have one portal where users are login and registered themself by creating account. And downloads anything if available , or button click events.
These data I want to capture from our UI through angular and then it will be push further to elastic APM server.
I also recommend you have a look at the API reference documentation you will see there how you can use leverage RUM agent API to create custom flows:
button click events
As mentioned in supported technologies docs, clicks are automatically captured by the agent. You will see that referenced in the UI as a "user interaction" transaction, or "route-change" in case the click triggered a URL change in a SPA.
Clicks are only captured if they generate network activity (xhr/fetch)
Last but not least, in terms of UI:
Bear in mind, that you will need to use the dropdown to filter by transaction type, the default value tends to be "page-load"
