==== Find failed transaction correlations
|
||||
|
||||
The correlations on the *Error rate* tab help you discover which fields are
|
||||
contributing to failed transactions.
|
||||
beta::[]
|
||||
|
||||
By default, a number of attributes commonly known to cause performance issues,
|
||||
like version, infrastructure, and location, are included, but all are completely
|
||||
customizable to your APM data. Find something interesting? A quick click of a
|
||||
button will auto-query your data as you work to resolve the underlying issue.
|
||||
The correlations on the *Failed transaction correlations* tab help you discover
|
||||
which attributes are most influential in distinguishing between transaction
|
||||
failures and successes. In this context, the success or failure of a transaction
|
||||
is determined by its {ecs-ref}/ecs-event.html#field-event-outcome[event.outcome]
|
||||
value. For example, APM agents set the `event.outcome` to `failure` when an HTTP
|
||||
transaction returns a `5xx` status code.
|
||||
|
||||
The error rate over time chart visualizes the change in error rate over the selected time frame.
|
||||
Correlated attributes are sorted by _Impact_–a visual representation of the
|
||||
{ref}/search-aggregations-bucket-significantterms-aggregation.html[significant terms aggregation]
|
||||
score that powers correlations.
|
||||
Attributes with a high impact, or attributes present in a large percentage of failed transactions,
|
||||
may contribute to increased error rates.
|
||||
// The chart highlights the failed transactions in the overall latency distribution for the transaction group.
|
||||
If there are attributes that have a statistically significant correlation with
|
||||
failed transactions, they are listed in a table. The table is sorted by scores,
|
||||
which are mapped to high, medium, or low impact levels. Attributes with high
|
||||
impact levels are more likely to contribute to failed transactions.
|
||||
// By default, the attribute with the highest score is added to the chart. To see a different attribute in the chart, hover over its row in the table.
|
||||
|
||||
To find error rate correlations, hover over each potentially correlated attribute to
|
||||
compare the error rate distribution of transactions with and without the selected attribute.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, in the screenshot below, the field `url.original` and value `http://localhost:3100...`
|
||||
existed in 100% of failed transactions between 6:00 and 10:30.
|
||||
For example, in the screenshot below, the field
|
||||
`kubernetes.pod.name` and value `frontend-node-59dff47885-fl5lb` has a medium
|
||||
impact level and existed in 19% of the failed transactions.

|
||||
|
||||
Select the `+` filter to create a new query in the {apm-app} for transactions with
|
||||
`url.original: http://localhost:3100...`. With the "noise" now filtered out,
|
||||
you can begin viewing sample traces to continue your investigation.
|
||||
TIP: Some details, such as the failure and success percentages, are available
|
||||
only when the
|
||||
<<observability-enable-inspect-es-queries,observability:enableInspectEsQueries>>
|
||||
advanced setting is enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
As you sift through erroneous transactions, you'll likely notice other interesting attributes.
|
||||
Return to the correlations fly-out and select *Customize fields* to search on these new attributes.
|
||||
You may need to do this a few times–each time filtering out more and more noise and bringing you
|
||||
closer to a diagnosis.

[[correlations-customize-fields]]
|
||||
===== Customize fields
|
||||
|
||||
By default, a handful of attributes commonly known to cause performance issues
|
||||
are included in the analysis on the *Error rate* tab. You can add and remove
|
||||
fields under the **Customize fields** dropdown.
|
||||
|
||||
The following fields are selected by default. To keep the default list
|
||||
manageable, only the first six matching fields with wildcards are used.
|
||||
|
||||
**Frontend (RUM) agent:**
|
||||
|
||||
* `labels.*`
|
||||
* `user.*`
|
||||
* `user_agent.name`
|
||||
* `user_agent.os.name`
|
||||
* `url.original`
|
||||
|
||||
**Backend agents:**
|
||||
|
||||
* `labels.*`
|
||||
* `host.ip`
|
||||
* `service.node.name`
|
||||
* `service.version`
|
||||
|
||||
[TIP]
|
||||
====
|
||||
* Want to start over? Select **reset** to clear your customizations.
|
||||
* The *Latency* tab does not have a **Customize fields** dropdown, since it
|
||||
automatically considers all relevant fields in the transactions.
|
||||
====
|
||||
Select the `+` filter to create a new query in the {apm-app} for transactions
|
||||
with this attribute. You might do his for multiple attributes--each time
|
||||
filtering out more and more noise and bringing you closer to a diagnosis.
