Onboarding steps for APM are confusing #178157

Open smith opened 6 months ago

smith commented 6 months ago

The onboarding steps for APM views are quite confusing. In order to get APM traces/metrics....I needed to only install APM language agent, which step 4 &5. But the fleet step is for RUM, Infra metrics etc. But when I click on Manage APM integration in Fleet, it says Add "Elastic APM", but its already added as a part of APM language agent. And also the number of steps are also confusing 1,2 and then 4,5

If I go to RUM agent steps, it seems like I need to do step 5 and 6, these are alternate options to implement RUM

We should be able to auto instrument RUM when instrumenting for APM.

@akhileshpok I put this on our team's board since we own the tutorials. If you think it should be looked at as part of onboarding work you're doing we can get it moved to the right place.

Thanks @smith. My aim is to improve this experience as part of the onboarding initiative, but it will take some time before we get to it. cc @sileschristian, @flash1293 for reference.
