Configure Browser Snapshot Collection

Related pages:

Every page view and AJAX request sends a beacon to the EUM server. Every minute, the EUM server evaluates the collection of beacon samples and sends what are called "snapshots" to the Controller.

With browser snapshots, you can enable or disable:

  • Slow snapshot collection, that is snapshots of requests where the End User Response Time is higher than the configured threshold.
  • Periodic snapshot collection.
  • Error snapshots, that is snapshots of requests for which a JavaScript error is reported or an Ajax request receives an HTTP error response. An error response is any HTTP code equal to or greater than 400.

If all three kinds of browser snapshot types—periodic, error, and slow response time—are disabled, the agent does not collect any browser snapshots.
