In App Dynamics calculating the sum of a transaction metric

I am creating a dashboard in App Dynamics and would like to get the sum of the metric calls/minute for an endpoint of my web service. How can I do that? I can create the graph of calls/minute for a day. enter image description here

But I would like to display the sum of these calls for a 24 hour period.

Solution

  • How to display the total number of calls for a Business Transaction over a 24 hour period:

    • (Load Dashbord in Edit Mode)
    • Click "Add Widget"
    • Click "Metric Value"
    • Click "Select a Metric"
    • Specify the Application and BT in top 2 sections
    • In next section click "Select a Metric"
    • Click "Calls per Minute" / "Select Metric"
    • Change "Value" to "Sum" in dropdown
    • Click "Save"
    • (optional) For time range can fix this to 24 hours by using the "Use Widget-Specific Time Range" option in the main widget edit screen (otherwise the dashboard time range will be used for the widget)
    • Click "Save"
