We don't support all parts of Loopback out-of-the-box yet. As Loopback is built on Express, I think we should be able to pick up the Express routes, but custom namespaces are not picked up correctly as far as I remember. If possible, you can overwrite the default transaction names that we detect with the correct names: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/nodejs/current/custom-stack.html#custom-stack-route-naming](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/nodejs/current/custom-stack.html#custom-stack-route-naming) Please let me know if you try it out and what results you see 🙂 /thomas ---
