Issue/Introduction

We're encountering an issue trying to get the BrowserAgentExtensions to collect transaction metrics using the start and stop functions.   

 

Environment

Release : 11.1.3

Component : APM Agents

Resolution

Do these steps to collect custom metrics using Browser Agent APIs:

- Download the default extension file.
- Edit this file and Upload the extended extension file.
- (Optional) Download the custom extension file.

 

 

The Browser Agent extension is now in the BA.js file,

The extensions have the methods for transactions, customerID and other Browser Agent API's

 

If customers are seeing a lot of undeclared values or missing references, it typically means they don't have the BAExt.js or equivalent included in the project.
