Hello, I have a problem with the correct working functionality which is to Ignore transactions based on URLs.  
I search for this problem on this forum but I only found problems with java agent not dotnet.

**Kibana version** : 7.17.9

**Elasticsearch version** : 7.17.9

**APM Server version** : 7.17.9

**APM Agent language and version** : dotnet 5.13.0

**Fresh install or upgraded from other versions?** Upgraded from 7.17.1 to 7.17.9

**Is there anything special in your setup?** We use Kafka, Logstash, we have our index patterns and custom templates

**Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior. Please include screenshots (if relevant)**: I have a problem with not working (in my opinion) transaction\_ignore\_urls. The setup looks like this :

I tried a few options :

- _/name/nameNotificationCount_
- "/name/nameNotificationCount"
- '_/name/nameNotificationCount'  
But still, in Discover in .ds-traces-apm-default-_ index I see those transactions.  
We are after a transition from stand-alone apm server into data streams (Elastic Agent - Fleet managed) maybe this is a problem? we are still on 7.7.19 version not 8x but in documentation, I see this option for our version.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Wojciech_Kwiecien

`transaction_ignore_urls` is implemented in APM Agents - so first I'd focus on the APM Agent.

> We are after a transition from stand-alone apm server into data streams (Elastic Agent - Fleet managed) maybe this is a problem?

No, I don't think so - fleet and elastic agent is not really relevant for this feature, the filtering of the transactions happens in the APM Agent. You entered .NET here, so I assume you use the .NET Agent.

In order to further debug, we'd need agent logs. See: [Troubleshooting | APM .NET Agent Reference [1.x] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/troubleshooting.html#collect-agent-logs)
