Reporter configuration optionsedit

secret_tokenedit

This string is used to ensure that only your agents can send data to your APM server.

Both the agents and the APM server have to be configured with the same secret token. Use if APM Server requires a token.

Default Type Dynamic

<none>

String

false
Java System Properties Property file Environment

elastic.apm.secret_token

secret_token

elastic.apm.server_urls

server_urls

ELASTIC_APM_SERVER_URLS

server_timeoutedit

If a request to the APM server takes longer than the configured timeout, the request is cancelled and the event (exception or transaction) is discarded. Set to 0 to disable timeouts.

If timeouts are disabled or set to a high value, your app could experience memory issues if the APM server times out.

Supports the duration suffixes ms, s and m. Example: 5s. The default unit for this option is s

Default Type Dynamic

5s

TimeDuration

false
Java System Properties Property file Environment

Verification can be disabled by changing this setting to false.

true

Boolean

false
Java System Properties Property file Environment

elastic.apm.verify_server_cert

verify_server_cert

flush_intervaledit

Interval with which transactions should be sent to the APM server.

A lower value will increase the load on your APM server, while a higher value can increase the memory pressure on your app.

A higher value also impacts the time until transactions are indexed and searchable in Elasticsearch.

Supports the duration suffixes ms, s and m. Example: 1s. The default unit for this option is s

Default Type Dynamic

1s

TimeDuration

false
Java System Properties Property file Environment

max_queue_sizeedit

Maximum queue length of transactions before sending transactions to the APM server.

A lower value will increase the load on your APM server, while a higher value can increase the memory pressure of your app.

A higher value also impacts the time until transactions are indexed and searchable in Elasticsearch.

This setting is useful to limit memory consumption if you experience a sudden spike of traffic.

Default Type Dynamic

500

Integer

true
Java System Properties Property file Environment

elastic.apm.max_queue_size
