APM Agent configuration allows you to fine-tune your agent configuration from within the APM app.
|
|
Changes are automatically propagated to your APM agents, so there's no need to redeploy.
|
|
|
|
To get started, choose the services and environments you wish to configure.
|
|
The APM app will let you know when your agents have applied your configurations.

==== Precedence
|
|
|
|
Configurations set from the APM app take precedence over configurations set locally in each Agent.
|
|
However, if APM Server is slow to respond, is offline, reports an error, etc.,
|
|
APM agents will use local defaults until they're able to update the configuration.
|
|
For this reason, it is still essential to set custom default configurations locally in each of your agents.

==== APM Server setup
|
|
|
|
This feature requires {apm-server-ref}/setup-kibana-endpoint.html[Kibana endpoint configuration] in APM Server.
|
|
|
|
APM Server acts as a proxy between the agents and Kibana.
|
|
Kibana communicates any changed settings to APM Server so that your agents only need to poll APM Server to determine which settings have changed.
|
|

|
|
==== Supported configurations
|
|
|
|
Each Agent has a list of supported configurations.
|
|
After selecting a Service name and environment in the APM app,
|
|
a list of all supported configuration options,
|
|
including descriptions and default values, will be displayed.
|
|
|
|
Supported configurations are also tagged with the image:./images/dynamic-config.svg[] badge in each Agent's configuration reference:
