User Action Property - Header Data

[serhat_balik]

It seems that the closest thing to Request Attributes in front-end is User Action Properties.

I want to be able to capture pageName, convId from the Form Data that is shown in the picture. However, I couldn't find a way to capture the data inside the request header.

What I've tried is is Meta tag, but that didn't work. Do you have any suggestions?

You can actually combine these. You can define user action properties that use a request attribute as their data source. So you define it as a request attribute then use that in a user action property configuration. This does require full stack monitoring so will not work in agentless RUM.

I don't believe this will help in your specific case though since the only 'payloads' we can really pull will be post parameters x-www-form-urlencoded with webservers which I don't believe is what is in your screenshot. Might be worth a shot in case I am mistaken though.

You can use a Server Side Request Attribute to get the data you want from the backend.

Form data from a HTTP POST is actually one of the only parts where dynatrace captures data from payload.

Create a Request Attribute like this (You can Filter for Process Group / Tags):

Then add that Request Attribute in the User Action Property.

You can do the same with a separate request attribute and user action property for the other values you want.
