Frequency of Data collection in SAP

[GP_Stanley]

Customer is using SAP ABAP extension, how frequently is the data collected?

Is this information from 2020 still true?

https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Extensions/Q-A-to-the-SAP-ABAP-and-Citrix-Application-Monitoring-... 

It says on the bottom about 1 minute intervals from ram. 

The customer is refreshing SAP GUI every second and gets an updated value with milliseconds for dialog response time, is Dynatrace able to provide this real-time monitoring of dialog response time among others from the SAP ABAP extension?

Currently, the timeframe limits 5 min minimum and graphs show 1 minute intervals so all data is a minute behind, is real-time monitoring of SAP not possible?

We still recommend to poll the data on the minute basis. There is a setting to poll it once every 5 minutes, but that often leads to sampling.

To make sure that the SAP server finished the processing of the snapshot we poll 4-5 minutes into the past. There is no configuration to poll data closer than that to real time.
