Filter monitoring data via request attributes

Once you’ve defined your request attributes, you can go to any service page where you expect to see your defined request attributes. Have a look at the Top requests section. The respective requests contain attribute labels indicating the defined request attributes. Select any request attribute to filter the entire page view down to only those requests that carry the selected attribute.

Request attributes

Any further analysis you do will be focused on these same requests.

Request attributes

A Request attributes tab is available next to the Top requests section. This tab lists the request attributes that correspond to the request page. The results reflect the current filter settings and shows the same metrics as the request table.

In the example below, you can see a list of four request attributes. The Median response time is the median response time of all requests that contain the request attribute. The Total time consumption represents the sum of response times of all requests in the selected timeframe that have the selected request attribute.

You can also view the corresponding throughput metrics. In the example below, there were 2,400 requests that dealt with easyTravel JourneyId and the current throughput is 16/min.

To check values of a request attribute, expand its row. The table below shows the throughput numbers for all requests that contain the easyTravel destination attribute, sorted into the Top 18 values.

Select any value to further filter the page to just requests that carry the selected request attribute with the selected value.

If you proceed to other analysis options (for example, service flow) the applied request attribute filter will persist.
