Autocomplete and search are in public beta.

Requirements

Installation

Run your service with Dynamic Instrumentation enabled, and additionally enable autocomplete and search:

  1. Set the DD_SYMBOL_DATABASE_UPLOAD_ENABLED=true environment variable.
  2. Specify the DD_SERVICE and DD_VERSION Unified Service Tags.
  3. After starting your service with Dynamic Instrumentation and autocomplete and search enabled, you can use Dynamic Instrumentation’s IDE-like features on the APM > Dynamic Instrumentation page.

Additional configuration

Third party detection

If autocomplete suggestions do not appear for your package or module, it may be incorrectly recognized as third-party code. The autocomplete and search features use a heuristic to filter out third-party code, which can sometimes lead to accidental misclassification.

To ensure that your code is properly recognized and to enable accurate autocomplete and search functionality, you can configure the third-party detection settings using the following options:

export DD_THIRD_PARTY_EXCLUDES=<LIST_OF_USER_CODE_PACKAGE_PREFIXES>
export DD_THIRD_PARTY_INCLUDES=<LIST_OF_ADDITIONAL_THIRD_PARTY_PACKAGE_PREFIXES>

Where a list means a comma separated list of package prefixes, for example:

export DD_THIRD_PARTY_EXCLUDES=com.mycompany,io.mycompany
