Application name not used to populate the Service Name in New Relic Logs #9

Open michielvoo opened 3 years ago

michielvoo commented 3 years ago

Status

BUG REPORT

Steps

  1. Configure the New Relic sink using .WriteTo.NewRelicLogs(endpointUrl, applicationName, licenseKey)
  2. Write a log message
  3. Check the log details in New Relic Logs
  4. Service Name (in the header, above the table that lists all the log message's properties) is set to N/A

Expected behaviour

Service Name is set to the value of the applicationName variable that was used to configure the sink.

Actual behaviour

The value of the applicationName is not used.

Environment

Serilog.Sinks.NewRelic.Logs 1.1.0 on .NET Core 3.1 with New Relic One in Europe.

Background information

In this question about Service Name in New Relic Logs, the answer from New Relic Support is:

I understand that you are looking to add a Service Name within the Log detail. You can do that by simply adding a service attribute to the log payload you are sending.

There is a workaround, but it would be nice if this was not necessary:

.Enrich.WithProperty("service", applicationName)
