Enable Dynamic Instrumentation for .NET
This page is not yet available in Spanish. We are working on its translation.
If you have any questions or feedback about our current translation project,
feel free to reach out to us!Dynamic Instrumentation is a feature of supporting Datadog tracing libraries. If you are already using APM to collect traces for your application, ensure your Agent and tracing library are on the required version, and go directly to enabling Dynamic Instrumentation in step 4.
Prerequisites
For a better experience, Datadog recommends enabling autocomplete and search (in Preview).
Installation
Install or upgrade your Agent to version 7.45.0 or higher.
If you don’t already have APM enabled, in your Agent configuration, set the DD_APM_ENABLED
environment variable to true
and listening to the port 8126/TCP
.
Install or upgrade the .NET tracing libraries to version 2.54.0, by following the relevant instructions for .NET Framework or .NET Core.
Note: Dynamic Instrumentation is available in the dd-trace-dotnet
library in versions 2.54.0 and later.
Run your service with Dynamic Instrumentation enabled by setting the DD_DYNAMIC_INSTRUMENTATION_ENABLED
environment variable to true
. Specify DD_SERVICE
, DD_ENV
, and DD_VERSION
Unified Service Tags so you can filter and group your probes and target active clients across these dimensions.
After starting your service with Dynamic Instrumentation enabled, you can start using Dynamic Instrumentation on the APM > Dynamic Instrumentation page.

Configure Dynamic Instrumentation using the following environment variables:
Environment variable | Type | Description |
---|
DD_DYNAMIC_INSTRUMENTATION_ENABLED | Boolean | Set to true to enable Dynamic Instrumentation. |
