This page describes how to view transaction snapshot data to monitor and troubleshoot business transaction performance. To learn about when Splunk AppDynamics takes transaction snapshots or how to configure transaction snapshot settings, see Transaction Snapshot Collection.

Splunk AppDynamics monitors every execution of a business transaction in the instrumented environment, and the metrics reflect all such executions. For troubleshooting purposes, Splunk AppDynamics takes snapshots of specific instances of a transaction. A transaction snapshot gives you a cross-tier view of the processing flow for a single invocation of a transaction.

Call drill downs, where available, detail key information including slowest methods, errors, and remote service calls for the transaction execution on a tier. A drill down may include a partial or complete call graph. Call graphs reflect the code-level view of the processing of the business transaction on a particular tier.
