We are using ELK APM server where we have seen all the nodejs apps are properly reporting except one nodejs app.  
We have configured heartbeat with "/status" endpoint for all Nodejs apps.  
In APM we are able to see this "/status" transactions for all NodeJS apps except one.  
Also we are able to see Metrics for that Nodejs APP.

We are using below parameters in all Nodejs Application alongwith npm module of `elastic-apm-node`

```auto
ELASTIC_APM_SERVICE_NAME
ELASTIC_APM_SERVER_URL

```

**Kibana version** : 7.4

**Elasticsearch version** : 7.4

**APM Server version** : 7.4

**APM Agent language and version** :  
In Below Screenshot you can see for "ob-admin-spa" its not showing any response.

@Sagar_Dalvi

I would start by looking at any differences in the configuration for the non-working app compared to working apps?

I had an issue with NodeJS APM agent, refer to this [post](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/nodejs-apm-not-reporting-transactions-but-reporting-metrics/235843), able to resolve it by reconfiguring the agent.

Thanks,  
Chandra
