Hi here,

in Kibana \> APM \> transaction detail, we can see the full detail about a "random" transaction (section "Transaction sample" below the histogram).  
Is it possible to have this view for a specific transaction?

Example I have a request with transaction.id "559ac6f4-XXXX-XXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX", and I want to see the detail timeline, request/response header for this request.

It would be nice to be able search by transaction.id on APM home page.

Hi Mickael,  
thanks for reaching out. Yes, we agree! We're currently adding the query bar, from Discover, to the APM UI, which will help you do exactly that (if there's a sample of that transaction). [#19469](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/19469)

best,  
Rasmus
