Mobile ADK - custom protocol tagging
Hi,
Customer wants to use the Mobile ADK for a mobile application on Android. The communication between the mobile app and the webserver is a custom protocol. It does not work with HTTP objects. They open a socket connection and do everything from there. I know with the "normal" ADK you can use the ADK to tag such a protocol. Is this also possible with the mobile ADK?
Kind regards,
Chris
Hi Chris,
request tagging is exclusively done via a HTTP header, i.e. we don't have the possibility to tag communication via any other protocol than HTTP.
best regards,
Clemens
Hi Clemens,
What they use in fact is there own version of HTTP. So they set headers and cookies and all that stuff. But they do everything themselves. So they open a socket connection and start from there. If they would set the x-dynaTrace header themselves with a own generated purepath ID, would that work?Or do we still need to attach this "webrequest" to a user action?
Chris
