Link services and business transactions to teams in Splunk Observability Cloud

Learn how to associate services and business transactions with a team.

You can link services to a team to make resources accessible on the team's landing page. When you link a service to a team, the business transaction(s) that involve the service are automatically linked to the team as well.

Linking a service to a team enables the following resources:

On the team landing page, the Services and Business transactions tabs display the list of linked services and business workflows as well as their associated alerts and request, error, and duration (RED) metrics.
On the APM Overview page, filter by a team to display only the services and business transactions that are linked to the team in the Services and Business transactions tabs.
