how to retrieve browser snapshot programmatically

CommunityUser — Mon, 11 Sep 2017 12:18:37 GMT

Hello,

We have a huge need to retrieve browser snapshots to be able to do crossed data aggregation :

using user IP to do GeoIP + search by SPA page for example

i tried almost all i could with the request-snapshot API but i wasnt able to retrieve any single browser snapshot

How can i do this please ?

Regards,

Guillaume

Guillaume,

I dont think we have a way to retreive Browser Snapshots using an API but you can use analytics API as an alternative to fetch these value.

You can refer this KB that talks about how you can retreive it

Hello Mohammed,

thx for pointing me an alternative to this.

I have a local installation in my company, no internet hosting or internet access to appdynamics.com

The analytics part tries to contact appDynamics site : is there a doc or an article page which explains how to configure analytics part on internal installation ?

Regards,

Guillaume

Hi Guillaume,

I think you might have a local analytics/events-service already configured and so you need to just change the end-point to point it towards your local events-service

For instance, you need to use the below end-point

  http://<events_service_endpoint>:9080/events/query
