Business events capture:
For Business event capture we use specific fields from response/ request body
Want to check how this values are read from response / request body before saving data to grails
will this save the entire response / request body to grails?
will Dynatrace scans through the whole request / response body before it captures specific fields from response / request body
Solved! Go to Solution.

To clarify your question, are you asking about the payload for how these Business Events are captured?
If you're asking about generally, BizEvents are captured through a variety of ways (RUM, Log Files, OA ingestions, etc.). A good blog post on this can be documented here:
In addition, the official documentation also states how it's ingested here:
https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/platform-modules/business-analytics/ba-events-capturing
It seems as though for external requests at the least, the payload is in the form of a JSON - in which this is read in through DT.

Will also add to this thread that there is a good example of how this data is extracted from the payload via the OneAgent:

Thanks.
Right , question was on payload data from business event capture. How does Dynatrace capture and read these values from payload after configuring Business event capture for these request / payloads?
For example:
I have configured a business event capture rule for a field (field A) in payload. When business event captures this field using the business event capture :
will this save the entire response / request body to grails?
will Dynatrace scans through the whole request / response body before it captures specific fields from response / request body.

If you set it to save only the X key and value from a payload, will only save that. Setting it to save the full RQ/RS will save the full RQ/RS. Otherwise, the cost of saving the full RQ/RS should impact the business event capture. If you save Field A and later search for Field B, that info will not exist.
