Elastic Observability APM

Is it possible to use Windows Environment Variables in the config file.

eg. service_name=Servicename_%Hostname%

Thx

Are you referring to the APM Server config file or one of the agents?

3

Agent properties File.

Which agent are you using?

5

Java Agent 1.6.1

Not in the config file, as it will be read and parsed as a string.
For that you will need to set this configuration via environment variable or system property.

Hi @Eyal_Koren! Thanks for the answer. So I can set some of my settings in the config file and some others via environment variable or system property?

Then I will set only this one via env and hope it works :smiley:

Thx

Yes, that should work. Did it work for you?
