Collect records

Certain types of records are enabled for collection by default. You can add or remove the types of records that are collected and sent to your recordstore from the Settings / Records page. These records primarily contain information about messages, transactions, and sessions sent over common L7 protocols such as DNS, HTTP, and SSL.

If you want to collect only specific details from transactions, you can create custom records through the ExtraHop Trigger API.

Note:You can manage these settings centrally from a Command appliance or Reveal(x) 360.
