Hi @Kartheek_Mannepalli,

Thanks for reaching out.

Currently, `disableInstrumentations` doesn't support disabling route changes, instead you should add `disableInstrumentations: [history]` to your config and remove the angular integration. You can instead use the base package `@elastic/apm-rum` to instrument your application.

I've also created [this issue](https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-rum-js/issues/499) to make the configuration easier.

Cheers,  
Hamid

@Hamidreza Thanks for the response. The route-change is kind of helpful for us so we might keep the angular integration. I wanted to see if we have the option of disabling it in the future.
