For enhanced visibility into your deployments, we offer deployment annotations on all transaction charts.
This feature automatically tags new deployments, so you can easily see if your deploy has increased response times
for an end-user, or if the memory/CPU footprint of your application has changed.
Being able to identify bad deployments quickly enables you to rollback and fix issues without causing costly outages.
This feature enables you to easily determine if your deployment has increased response times for an end-user,
or if the memory/CPU footprint of your application has changed.
Being able to quickly identify bad deployments enables you to rollback and fix issues without causing costly outages.
By default, automatic deployment annotations are enabled.
This means the APM app will create an annotation on your data when the `service.version` of your application changes.
Alternatively, you can explicitly create deployment annotations with our annotation API.
The API can integrate into your CI/CD pipeline,
so that each time you deploy, a POST request is sent to the annotation API endpoint:
[source,console]
----
curl -X POST \
http://localhost:5601/api/apm/services/${SERVICE_NAME}/annotation \ <1>
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'kbn-xsrf: true' \
-H 'Authorization: Basic ${API_KEY}' \ <2>
-d '{
"@timestamp": "${DEPLOY_TIME}", <3>
"service": {
"version": "${SERVICE_VERSION}" <4>
},
"message": "${MESSAGE}" <5>
}'
----
<1> The `service.name` of your application
<2> An APM app API key with sufficient privileges
<3> The time of the deployment
<4> The `service.version` to be displayed in the annotation
<5> A custom message to be displayed in the annotation
See the <<apm-annotation-api,annotation API>> reference for more information.
Deployment annotations are enabled by default, and can be created with the <<apm-annotation-api,annotation API>>.
If there are no created annotations for the selected time period,
the APM app will automatically annotate your data if the `service.version` of your application changes.
NOTE: If custom annotations have been created for the selected time period, any derived annotations, i.e., those created automatically when `service.version` changes, will not be shown.
