APM/EUM Custom Names Wildcards in IsInList

jeremyGoldstein
Path Finder

When creating rules, either with Custom Rules in APM or Include/Exclude Rules in EUM, the tool gives the ability to match the URL/URI based on several conditions: Is in List, Starts With, etc... These same options exist in other areas, as well.

How can a rule be created that lists values (Is in List) and  utilize wildcards in the values?

For example (asterisk is wildcard): Is in List /site/portal1*, /site/portal2*

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for posting the question on the Community.

Unfortunately, a wildcard cannot be used in "is in the list" as the word infers.

You need to use Matches Reg Ex that can be used a regular expression.

"Matches Reg Ex" can be used the regular expression below;

\/site\/portal\d[1-2]*

Please refer to the following docs:
https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Custom+Match+Rules#CustomMatchRules-splitting
https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Using+Regular+Expressions

Let me know if this helped you.


Many thanks,
Mika
