TIP: {apm-overview-ref-v}/errors.html[Errors] are groups of exceptions with a similar exception or log message.

The *Errors* overview provides a high-level view of the error message and culprit,
|
|
|
|
the number of occurrences, and the most recent occurrence.
|
|
|
|
Just like the transaction overview, you'll notice we group together like errors.
|
|
|
|
This makes it very easy to quickly see which errors are affecting your services,
|
|
|
|
and to take actions to rectify them.

Here, you'll see the error message, culprit, and the number of occurrences over time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Further down, you'll see the Error occurrence table.
|
2020-04-15 16:54:26 +02:00
|
|
|
This table shows the details of a sampled error within this group.
|
2019-01-30 18:08:11 +01:00
|
|
|
The error shown is always the most recent to occur.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each error occurrence features a breakdown of the exception, including the stack trace from when the error occurred,
|
|
|
|
and additional contextual information to help debug the issue.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, you might also see a Transaction sample ID.
|
|
|
|
This feature allows you to make a connection between the errors and transactions,
|
|
|
|
by linking you to the specific transaction where the error occurred.
|

This allows you to see the whole trace, including which services the request went through.
