Where can I access server-side web service requests?

jeff_tucker — Thu, 27 May 2021 07:42:33 GMT

In AppMon we were able to see the web requests being made by the application to backend services by viewing the Web Requests dashlet. These are the calls that are generated by the application while servicing the requests made from our test client. Is it possible to access this information in DT Managed?

Thanks,

I would make use of the Top web requests tool:

https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/how-to-use-dynatrace/diagnostics/top-web-requests/?_ga=2.91025433.285095937.1622062189-796424119.1622062189

The one under diagnostic tools searches all services, but you can also filter it down to specific services or use the corresponding tool that is available individual services' overview pages.

James is correct. You can also go via the service where those web requests originate (AppMon didn't have the concept of services).

Finally, if you're wanting to view the trace beginning at the frontend (browser or mobile app), that's also possible via drilldowns in the Application screen:
