Hi,
I just configured my Java application on-prem installing the Java Codeless Agent applicationinsights-agent-3.0.0-PREVIEW.5.jar.

I figured out my application is logging milions of dependencies and I would like to disable them, but I think there is no way to disable only dependencies because as far as I understood the dependencies are auto-tracked.

I would like to have a dedicated configuration to avoid to send dependencies to Application Insights.

Thanks,
Giuseppe

Here are the configuration options we have available for Java agent:

What dependencies are excessive? You may greatly benefit from enabling sampling.

Hi,
Thanks for the Answer I knew that link and it seems there is no way to limit the jdbc dependencies which are causing cost issues.

Thanks

@martupeppe Do you think sampling may work for you?

No I don't think so. The customer would like to have all the requests.

Another solution would be avoid to send requests from a specific operationname so that the related dependencies would be filtered out.

Any suggestion?

@MS-jgol no ideas? Should I switch to java sdk to disable dependencies?

@MS-jgol looking at the code I think it should be fine amending te BeforeAgentInstaller.java to read the configuration e set a Global Property. In order to avoid to send dependency telemetry, the ByteCodeUtilImpl.java file should be changed and specifically the method trackDependency should evaluate the Global property previously set and log only if the configuration has been enabled. The same mechanism is used for Sampling just to mange the sampling percentage. Do you think it is feasible?
